If you wish, you can let your feedback dedicated to Michelle at the pforum. And besides I'd love to celebrate this special date with an amazing gift for all pfan (although I know many of you already know because I presented it some years ago, thanks Stacy who provided me this great stuff)

In 1982, Michelle conceded an interview for 16 Magazine, a fan publication based out of New York City, besdes it was the first one marketed to adolescents that focused exclusively on celebrities.

You will learn here more about Pfeiffer in this test-interview where Michelle answers with her own handwritting. It is so so interesting to read (although now some answers would be pretty outdated). You can download the 8 pages of the interview click on here.
