Title: John O'Dowd isn't the only one
Review: I always like seeing my name in print, but after reading Mr. O'Dowd's comments, I figure I should chime in. My experience is very much like Mr. O'Dowd's ... I am quoted (a bit incorrectly, but close enough) in Haney's book, and am named as the speaker who asks Peck a question about acting in bad movies, but I was never contacted about the anecdote, which comes in fact from my personal blog. It's also worth noting that Haney gets the context of the anecdote wrong ... she calls me a "journalist" speaking to Peck "around" the time Boys from Brazil came out (1978), when the conversation I had with Peck came more than ten years later, when I was just a graduate student sitting in an auditorium while Peck took some questions from the audience.And, again like Mr. O'Dowd, I am very easy to reach, via the very website where Haney found the anecdote in the first place.If my experience, and that of Mr. O'Dowd, is any indication, I don't suppose I'll be buying Haney's book.
