The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at Annie Moore's, and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morn- ing, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's. The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Alan Bradley, co-author of MS. HOLMES OF BAKER STREET (2004), and author of the award-winning "Flavia de Luce" series; the title of his talk was "Ha! The Stars Are Out and the Wind Has Fallen" (his paper will be published in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal).

    lifestyle WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2014 GOSSIP Bradley Cooper is ‘living the dream’ he 39-year-old actor can’t believe the success he is enjoying in his career and feels lucky to work with such respected names as Clint TEastwood - who will direct him in ‘American Sniper’ - and filmmaker David O Russell, who directed him in both ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ and ‘American Hustle’. Responding to a comment he always seems “honored and grateful” for Oscar attention, he said: “It would be hard not to be. I get to do the things I dreamt of as a kid, like working now with Clint Eastwood and being able to work twice with David O Russell. I am absolutely living the dream.” Bradley has received his second Best Actor nomination in a row this year and admits he still doesn’t think he deserves to be consid- ered. Speaking at the annual Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Beverly Hills yesterday he added: “To be able to be a part of this kind of thing two years in a row, I just keep waiting for them to take me away and say, ‘Sorry, sir, what are you doing here?’ Maybe it’s the way I was raised.” Rosie Whiteley he pair - who live together in Los Angeles - have to marry been dating since 2010 and are said to have plans to Ttie the knot near the blonde beauty’s parents home town in south west England.
