Letter from Hollywood Memories

How to find back numbers of Barbra's articles

I am very grateful to Barbra Paskin who over the past  few years has  contributed many  of her “Letter from Hollywood” columns. She has written about some of  Hollywood’s greatest stars  with a personal familiarity which brings these movie heroes  to life.

 So far we have  been unable to provide a proper index of these articles, so I hope what I am doing now is  going to be helpful.

If you go into the page of Letters from Hollywood which is in the Entertainment section of the website, you will see on the right hand side a list of many of Barbra’s columns. I will  list them   here chronologically so they will be easier for you to find.

This   will be slightly changed every time Barbra adds to the list.  But as I write in December 2025 - this will give you a fair guide.
