Although Elizabeth is missed, this book does have the magical ability to bring her wonderful energy and charm back to the reader. -- Eric Scott, actor, The Waltons, and Bewitched guest star When I was a young pup, the Makeup Department of Columbia Pictures/Screen Gems was a paradise every morning. From ages 12 to 20 I made it my business to fetch coffee and doughnuts for everyone, especially the ladies. There is no better way for a boy to start his morning than with beautiful, talented women—you’d find Donna Reed, Inger Stevens, and in 1963, Elizabeth Montgomery getting ready to star in Bewitched.
