*I cheer for France and sometimes think of myself as European rather than American*

If anyone thinks of themself as more European than American then Robin Katsaros' Paris home is the place you want to go! It's available for rent. Probably making a little spending money until the big check from Soros can be cashed...oops, I mean till the big book deal goes through. *wink wink*

She also has a one entry blog. Not much of writer...

Good find on that blog!! She is obviously not much of a writer, maybe some wannabe but not someone proficient or impressive. That makes me even more suspicious that this whole "lives of House pages" book project was just a front for digging for dirt -- maybe we need to find some actual current and former pages who can comment on that, research what went on with their peers, etc.

Robin Katsaros does write some kind of gossip column called "Socially Speaking" for the Los Altos Town Crier so I suppose she's just the person to troll for dirt among pages..... she's evidently well linked with Clintonistas as well as with Nancy Pelosi....

[re: July 1996]: "President Clinton was in town on July 23 on a fund-raising jaunt to raise money for his presidential campaign. A private dinner for 20 of Silicon Valley's movers-and-shakers was held at the home of Susie Tompkins, founder of Esprit in San Francisco. Among the selected guests were George Marcus (Marcus & Millichap) of Los Altos Hills who enjoyed food prepared by Alice Waters, owner of Chez Panise in Berkeley. The admission price for that meal was a tad bit more than one would pay for a meal at her restaurant."

Robin Katsaros has some strong connection to David Bonior as well!! See first note below from cached page of HPAA website, where she suggests that if Bonior were to become Secretary of Labor in a Demagogue administration then it "needless to say, would be very very good for my career :D

Hello all,
Yes, the book is still in progress. Outline is complete. Four of the fifteen chapters are in rough draft form (the chapters with input from previous Pages has not been completed - this part will take the longest since I have to spend so much time interviewing people and I've left this part until the end, although I have received some input from a very few people.) I have an agent (my husband is a published author), but no publisher yet. I am also working with a company that let's you self publish, sort of Print on Demand. And yes, you do get assigned an ISBN and it will be available at all the major book sellers. So I will do that if my agent can not get a publisher interested. Pictures have not been chosen, many more edits to go through. It's a long process. I've had to squeeze it in with my other responsibilities, so it's taking longer than I thought. But it IS going to happen, at some point in time. Thanks, Robin Katsaros
