    Shootister,


    Very close to the top of the page you get to when you click on the link in my original post, there is a box that lists the editor (as well as the web designer and composer) as June Parker Beck. Beyond that, I can't tell you more, except that she is not my mother, my sister, my friend, or even a casual acquaintance of mine. It would appear she is an avid fan of Maureen O'Hara.

    Who was that masked woman? It was me, June Parker Beck. May I extend an invitation to visit my site, which has been published on line since 1996. http://www.moharamagazine.com


    Nice forum you have here... once I figure it all out.


    Ms. O'Hara is kind enough to make her self available to me for consult and text so it definitely makes editing the site quite a pleasure - and more importantly - a learning experience.

    I just found your great forum and I've been stumbling through this format - it has so many features!!! Yesterday I thought I was posting and it turns out I was sending e-mails. Doesn't "PM" mean "post message?" ROFL Oh well - it's a cool format so bear with me while I figure it out. Duh!


    I have a website on Maureen O'Hara - http://www.moharamagazine.com which has been published since 1996. I do have contact with Ms. O'Hara. I have been fortunate in that she has endorsed my Internet efforts and helps me with facts and other input. She is a stickler for detail...and setting the record straight. Not to worry because her autobiography "Tis Herself" will be published by Simon and Schuster - probably in March of 2004. The book is complete and just awaiting minor edits.


    I did ask her yesterday about the TQM spanking topic...and she echoed what many of you thought already - "It didn't happen." She and Duke carefully choreographed that entire scene and to have stopped for a spanking would have impeded the forward progress of the dragging scene. At any rate - now you know for sure - from someone who was there and whose bottom would have been on the receiving end of such an action.


    When I began my research I quickly found it necessary to read all I could about John Wayne and John Ford so I made some great friends on that side of the coin. Tim Lilley of "The Big Trail" is the absolute expert on John Wayne and most every biographer consult him as they write.


    I'll include my URL of some of my research material over the years.
