Listmates,

A lot of you are familiar with my daughter Molly who grew up singing with my 
bands, the Fulton Street jazz Band in Sacramento & the Great pacific Jazz 
Band in Los Angeles.

The following is from AP News:

'Medium' Looks Pretty in Pink
Ringwald makes rare TV appearance in sweeps episode

LOS ANGELES -- Molly Ringwald, the princess of mid-1980s teen movies, will 
make her
first TV appearance in several years on a May sweeps episode of "Medium."
The "Breakfast Club" and "Pretty in Pink" star will guest-star in the 
episode as
a woman whom Allison (Patricia Arquette) believes is in trouble. It will be 
the first
TV work for Ringwald since the 2002 movie "The Big Time," which aired on 
TNT.
"I can't tell you how excited we are to have Molly Ringwald join us for this 
episode,"
"Medium" creator Glenn Gordon Caron says. "She is someone whose work I've 
long admired,
and I was thrilled when she agreed to do it. We don't often reach out to 
'special
guest stars' on 'Medium' -- but as anyone who watches the episode will come 
to understand,
this is just a perfect marriage of actor and material."
Ringwald says she's "been a fan of both Glenn's and Patricia's work for a 
long time.
I am thrilled to have the opportunity to work with them as well as the 
entire cast
of 'Medium.'"
In the episode, scheduled to air Monday, May 1, Allison has visions of a man 
breaking
into the home of a woman named Kathleen Walsh (Ringwald) -- but doing 
nothing more
than stealing a kiss from her. As Allison explores the case further, though, 
she
becomes convinced Kathleen is in danger.
Ringwald shot to fame as a teenager in a series of John Hughes movies, 
starting with
"Sixteen Candles." She has concentrated on stage work in recent years, 
including
roles in "Cabaret" and "Enchanted April" in New York and "When Harry Met 
Sally" in
London. She also had a cameo in "Not Another Teen Movie."
