Desiree holds the SLEEPAWAY DVD and meets some thrilled fans at the SLEEPAWAY REUNION!

JH:		What was your reaction to the SLEEPAWAY CAMP REUNION?
DG:		The reunion was truly an unbelievable event! It was hard to conceive that young kids and teenagers all over the United Stated remembered this film. I mean it was a very inventive & unusual plot with a lot of killings ... and there were some pretty great movies that were out there including ones with Sissy Spacek doing some incredible acting ... it was kind of unbelievable to see that SLEEEPAWAY CAMP would even be as big a success as it was! I was shocked by the whole experience. Truly.

Desiree chats with Jonathan Tiersten and Jeff as they await showtime at the REUNION...and she radiates on stage while she talks about strings around her finger-She just can't escape that infamous line!

JH:		Tell us what you do these days.
DG:		These days I spend most of my time selling Real Estate with one of the largest and most prestigious firms in New York City. I also fly back and forth from Florida to get some rest and relaxation, as real estate could become exhausting at times. Most recently, after the REUNION, I kind of gotten bitten by the acting bug, and I am toying with the idea of doing something in the arts, but I am not sure at what time I will go and try to audition, again. We'll see.

JH:		What do you do for fun?
DG:		What I do for fun is be with my friends, enjoy good theatre, movies, great restaurants and living in one of the most exciting cities in the world ... New York City. There is just so much to do - not to mention that work occupies a lot of ones time.

Desiree has a blast chatting SLEEPAWAY over a few cold ones with the REUNION crew after the show.

JH:		What are some of your biggest passions in life?
DG:		My passions are varied and those passions change with each new season in my life. At one time, Acting was the biggest passion in my life ... Another time, I spent days in ballet class trying to perfect every turn and angle to be like a dancer ... after all, I am an actress, not a dancer, so you could imagine how much time it took in ballet class to look - just - oh well - like I may have belonged there. So, as life turns each passion turns and brings you to the moment a person is in at that time. Right now I am concentrating on Real Estate and my passion for acting is slowly re-emerging.

JH: How would you feel about reprising your role as AUNT MARTHA in a future SLEEPAWAY film... and how would you play her 20 years later? DG: I believe I would play "Aunt Martha" again. I would have to read the script and anaylze my part and the impact it may or may not have on the public. I mean, who would have thought so many people would remember Aunt Martha -- for Better and Worse -- So, I would first start with the script.... than, my part, and how I would interact with the other players. It is hard to say how I would play Aunt Martha 20 years later -- or is it 18? Ha Ha .... I think the script would have a big part on the role. Also, to answer that question fully, I would have to do a lot of soul- searching and I am not at that point that I need to create Aunt Martha -- so I would hold off on writing about a definitive answer on how I would play her.
