Steven Spielberg & Maggie Savoy
Last night Steven Spielberg got the big Golden Globe recognition. When he was a teen-age film maker in Phoenix, he was profiled by women’s page editor Maggie Savoy in the Arizona Republic. That profile written by Savoy is included in the above biography about Spielberg. I am currently going over the proofs of my Maggie article.
