Acknowledgements
This book owes its existence to the invaluable support
and contributions of numerous remarkable individuals who,
like unexpected gifts, spontaneously entered my life, ignited
paths I never could have foreseen, and then, with some
exceptions, faded away again.
Among these amazing individuals are Tim Motion, Jane
Somerville, José Prazeres, Susan Bolotin, Dick Martin, Rui
Gonçalves, Dorothea Helms, Kerri King, Tim Whyte,
Margaret Zwart, Sandra Topper, Ross Harvey, Lynda Hill,
and Bernard Scrivener.
I am deeply grateful to my editor, Alexandra Leggat, for
her uncanny ability to inhale a complicated manuscript and
exhale an entertaining finished book.
Additionally, I am thankful to those who supported me
with their steadfast patience and unwavering radiance,
including Mike Freedman, Mary Claire Murphy, Brendan
Calder, Sheldon Rudner, John and Lizzie Blackburn,
Roderick Stewart, Jason King, Joanna, Kate, and Pippa
Boothman, and Thomas and Sandy Pinto Basto.
And Wendy, of course.
