Tracy’s featured song, “Mama, I Know You Ain’t Santa,” is a co-write between Tracy and her long time friend, actress Lynne Marie Stewart. Part of it was originally a short poem Lynne Marie performed, lovingly imitating Dolly Parton. Tracy suggested they turn it into a song. They added the music, the Santa/Atlanta section, changed some words and this song is the result. A few recent reactions to “Mama, I Know You Ain’t Santa:" It is one of the best songs I have heard in years… especially a Christmas song. I cried! Unfortunately, I am not doing a Christmas CD any time soon. – Dolly Parton (2012) Mama, I Know You Ain't Santa" made me cry. I'm just a cry-baby, I guess, but there are three places that kill me in that song. – Harriet Schock I was thrilled when I heard Mama, I Know You Ain't Santa played on KBOO in Portland about three weeks ago. I love that song and played it many times in the car to and from the YMCA before Christmas. – Don Duncan Mama I know you Ain't Santa is heartbreaking and uplifting...so powerful. – Irish Hugh Produced by Travis Allen Childress and Tracy Newman.

She started playing guitar at 14, usually sitting on the diving board of her family’s pool, strumming for hours each day. Back then she was mostly influenced by the Kingston Trio, because she could actually play some of their songs, especially “Tom Dooley” which had, and still has, only two chords. After high school, Tracy wanted to be a folksinger, but her parents insisted she go to college. She went to the U of A in Tucson and quickly discovered the “folk” community. She stopped attending college and began playing on street corners for money, otherwise known as “busking.” Understandably, this freaked out her mother who flew to Tucson and dragged Tracy back to LA for “help.” The therapist, an elderly man in a suit and tie, kept nodding off during the sessions. Apparently, he couldn’t relate to an upper middle class teenage girl who just wanted to be a folksinger. It’s taken Tracy a while to get back to her dream. In the early 70s, she joined an improv class taught by Gary Austin, which soon became The Groundlings. Tracy is a founding member, and besides performing, she taught and directed. Her sister, Laraine Newman was the first Groundling to be discovered there by Lorne Michaels for Saturday Night Live. Some other Groundling alumni include: Melissa McCarthy, Will Ferrell, Kristen Wiig, Paul “Pee Wee Herman” Reubens and Kathy Griffin. It was at the Groundlings that Tracy met her future TV writing partner, Jonathan Stark. Their first staff job was on “Cheers,” followed by “Bob”(Bob Newhart), “The Nanny,” “Ellen” and “The Drew Carey Show.” In 1997, Newman and Stark won an Emmy and Peabody Award for writing the groundbreaking “coming out” episode of “Ellen.” In 2001, they created the ABC comedy, "According to Jim," which ran for eight seasons. Tracy had been writing songs all along, many of which were featured in TV shows. She’s once again writing full-time and occasionally performing. Her debut CD, A Place in the Sun is still a favorite with young and old alike, for long car rides across the nation.

    December 1, 201 O Ellen DeGeneres World Wide Helper Soon to be: Smile Train Recipient Dear Ms. DeGeneres, "The Key to realizing a dream is to focus not only on success but significance - and then even the small steps and little victories along your path will take on greater meaning." - Oprah Winfrey. I understand this quote because I feel like I can relate to in so many ways. My name is Grace Peters and I'm a fourteen year old girl, who is currently in 8th grade. As I continue to grow and mature, I'm starting to see and understand life's gifts and how to turn a dream into reality! A dream that I have had for many years is to help children everywhere with cleft lips and/or palates. Having both a cleft lip and palate, I feel like I can relate to others around me with this birth defect. The Smile Train is run only by donations from people all around the world to help families that can't afford the surgery for their cleft lip and/or palate child. Their mission is to provide free cleft surgeries for millions of poor children in developing countries. My family and I have donated by a house yard sale, and I have also done fundraising at my elementary school, however, they were not as successful as I hoped. I'm hoping you can help. After my family and I send an amount of money towards the Smile Train, they send a letterb ack saying who you've helped, and a bit of the patient's background life before, and after the surgery.

  • Introduction: Placing the Self Within the Frame 1 New Storytelling
    Notes Introduction: Placing the Self within the Frame 1. This is performed by the Mamas and the Papas (see Chapter 6). 2. For various opinions on the potential of textual analysis see Childs (2006), Kovala (2008) and McKee (2003). 3. Although Gwen Haworth’s documentary is relevant to lesbian discourse, as Haworth, a male to female transsexual, expresses lesbian desire, I have not included this work in my book, as the focus is largely transsexual. Despite this, Haworth’s documentary is highly contiguous to the theoretical ideas expressed within this book, concerning self-reflexive narrative expression and sexual diversity. 4. Also there are still laws which oppress non-heterosexuals within the Western world. 5. It is important to note that this often includes production funding from Anglocentric sources, which bears its own implications of textual influence. 1 New Storytelling: Transitions from the Past 1. Howard Auster had changed his name to Howard Austen early in his career, on advice from Gore Vidal to avoid advertising his Jewish identity at a time when it was hard to obtain work as a Jew (Vidal, 1995). In Gore Vidal’s mem- oir, Howard’s name is restored to the original spelling; hence I have adopted it here. 2. I use the term ‘literature’ in the general sense as ‘serious writing’, esteemed by authority such as academia. 3. I am only discussing the media of radio in this chapter, as a precursor to later developments in television, film and new media through the World Wide Web. 4. It is important to note that in some non-Western countries conversely homo- sexuality under certain circumstances may be considered to offer positive myths.
