Homage : Dane Witherspoon (1957-2014) |
03/30/2014 |
![]() It is Santa Barbara which made known to the public Dane Witherspoon, by making of him the first hero of the show in July, 1984. The lassitude of the actor for his role and for the show and, as it is said, his lack of investment, will lead a few months after his arrival to his replacement by actor Mark Arnold. It will not prevent Dane from rebounding in another soap-opera, Capitol, from the next year in the role of Tyler McCandless. Santa Barbara will however have allowed him to meet Robin Wright, his partner in the role of Kelly Capwell, whom he will marry in 1986 before divorcing two years later. He marries a few years after actress Tracy K. Shaffer, with whom he will have two sons. Again divorced in 2011, Dane Witherspoon meanwhile definitively gave up his acting career to move into the ice cream business. He managed the ice cream company Licks, situated in Denver, Colorado, his home town. Dane died on this March 29th 2014, at 56 years old. All our thoughts go to his family.

Homage : Carmen Zapata (1927-2014) |
01/07/2014 |
![]() Born on July 15, 1927 in New York from parents of Mexican and Argentine origin, Carmen Zapata worked, throughout her career, at promoting the artistic talents of the American Hispanic community. She indeed participated actively in the creation of several foundations and organizations which still exist today. After debuts on the boards on Broadway in 1946, the actress worked on many roles for theater, cinema, and especially for very many TV shows until 2002, year of her last role. Since then, she continued to teach comedy at the university, or to propose lectures. Her part of Carmen Castillo may have been recurring, she nevertheless marked the minds in the skin of this woman of character but very likeable. Carmen Zapata died on January 05, 2014 in Van Nuys, California, from a cardiac insufficiency. We shall not forget her ! Read also : The biography of Carmen Castillo |
