Cool to see that Meg has let her hair go gray. She's still a very beautiful and sexy woman. And of course her sister Jennifer is extremely attractive too. Had no idea she was a writer until I saw this clip. I miss her. Wish she'd return to acting. Their Chinese father gave them those very alluring "Asian" looking eyes. Sad to hear she underwent abuse while growing up. That's horrible. But thanks for posting this extremely fascinating clip!

Such a lovely gal! I miss her as an actress but it sounds like she's been a very devoted mom and author. Kudos to you, Meg!

Thanks for the kind words, CoolBreeze. We were worried folks might be off-put by a thoughtful conversation about real issues like child abuse and literature. Glad our juvenile attempts to edit the piece helped you maintain focus.

At first, I thought this was a chump-change interview, not to be taken seriously. But then the video cut randomly to black and white shaky-cam. It was then that I was won over, because two people just sitting and talking bores me without the junior high school style of video editing.
