Pam Grier

I don't have anything original to say about Pam Grier. I have the usual male reaction to her: you can guess what that is. In Grier's case, my curiosity extends beyond her figure and sexiness to her life story. It's an interesting tale, one which Grier relates in her memoir. You can show her a little love by talking your public library into buying a copy of the book.

The LA Times recently published a five question interview with Grier. If you are unfamiliar with Grier's film work, two entry points are the blaxploitation movie Foxy Brown and Quentin Tarantino's underestimated Jackie Brown.
