Got this in my GI newsletter from gilligansisle.com Since I am Mr Howell there I thought I would pass this on to all of you if you don't get the newsletter.
___________________________ OK, what are you doing Thursday night? Nothing? Good. Come to Los Angeles and meet Tina Louise's daughter Caprice! This should be interesting to say the least! Does she look like Ginger? Act like Ginger? Maybe sing like Ginger? Maybe she'll dress like Ginger...... and then you know what? She'll BE Ginger. (now if only Mary Ann were there too) Hmmmmmm..... You may never have the chance to meet Ginger but her daughter is the next best thing! This fireball is full of life! I wonder what she'll do for us? I don't know about you guys but I'll be bringing my karaoke machine fully loaded with Ginger Grant songs begging her to sing "I Wanna Be Loved By You." I don't know what would be better. This night? Or running into Marcia Brady at a High School Cheer leading contest! As I said, Caprice Crane is the daughter of Tina Louise (Ginger). She just wrote her first book called "Stupid & Contagious" and she will be in Los Angeles on June 8th for a book signing then doing one in New York on July 6th. Caprice was born in Hollywood CA. As she grew up she attended New York University and later got a job at MTV. Today she writes for television and enjoys creating her own novels. Caprice is also writing screenplays for Paramount. (Man what a busy girl!) She'll be doing book signings at Barnes and Noble. The New York and Los Angeles signings are at these locations: June 8 7:30 pm Barnes & Noble 1201 3rd Street Santa Monica, CA July 6 7:00 pm Barnes & Noble 675 6th Avenue , Chelsea NY, NY I've heard how FUNNY the book is and that it is getting fantastic reviews as well! Go to http://www.capricecrane.com for updates. You can order her book at on-line at Amazon.com for only $9.97! Caprice Writes: What better way to witness a perfect California sunset than from the interior of the Santa Monica, Barnes and Noble…at the Caprice Crane "Stupid and Contagious" book reading/signing/q&a/pie-throwing event?! If the line seems to be stretching around the block…you know you've come to the wrong address. Where: Santa Monica Barnes and Noble, 1201 3rd Street (3rd Street Promenade) When: Thursday, June 8th 7:30 P.M. Why: Because this is your chance to stop by, let me scribble in your copy of the book, and ponder the deeper themes of the book including: when it’s acceptable for a waitress to dump blue cheese dressing in a customers hair, how to avoid awkwardness when you’re backsliding with your ex-girlfriend/boyfriend (lock the door), and what a guy really means when he offers to help a pretty girl with her groceries. Please come and bring some friends! There’s nothing sadder than a lonely author, clutching a sharpie, sitting behind a table piled high with crisp, fresh copies of her new novel, asking the store manager, "Did they print the right date on the poster?" And if you’re not in the Los Angeles area – stay tuned for an email soon about the New York book signing July 6th! |

Hey Matt, you're the "Mr. Howell" on gilligansisle.com? I didn't know that!
I'm the "Ginger" on there!

Her daughter somewhat resembles Tina when she played the twin Eva Grub (without glasses of course). Look at the dark features in the pic and then the character "Eva" in the episode. Tina had of course, dark features.

I've never seen her dad (Les Crane), but Caprice is obviously a *very* beautiful woman who is tall and lithe like her mother. Tina naturally had brown hair too.
To Matt, I took over the "Ginger" part when it was vacant about six months ago. I usually get an email every two weeks or so, sometimes from people who think I am Tina Louise! |

every two weeks, wow. That is a lot more than me. I only had one person think I was actually Mr Howell, it was very weird dealing with that one.
