In 2005, Abracadabra Alakazama two-part comic mystery caper was released, and immediately optioned for a motion picture. In 2015, The Naked Truth: An Irreverent Chronicle of Delirious Escapades was released. The book details accounts of Hollywood's last gasp for glamour in the 80's after the corporations took over the studios and sold off the massive period collection of one-of-a-kind historic garments in order to make rental money on the facilities in which they were kept. Additionally, it is a straightfoward honest look at such legends as Fred Astaire, Buddy Ebsen, Henry Fonda, Cary Grant, David Hemmings, Louis Jourdan, Patricia Neal, Sarah Miles, Ann Miller, Eleanor Parker, Barbara Rush, Brooke Shields, Susan Strasberg, Lana Turner, Nancy Walker and Mae West.
