text:  Shelley Duvall speaking to Terry Gross in 1992. The actress and producer who starred in many Robert Altman films and The Shining and produced Shelley Duvall's Fairytale Theatre died last Thursday at age 75. After a break, we'll remember Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the diminutive, grandmotherly German-Jewish sex therapist who became a media star. She died last week at age 96.
