My brush with heaven. Just saw Brooke Shields' Pretty Baby biopic and I was blown away! September 1984: I was a 14 year old nerdy kid attending RainbowFest (computer conference) at the Hyatt Regency in Princeton. My dad and I went downstairs for a quick bite to eat and we saw her with her mom. I came up to the table and all I could muster was "Hi". She politely said "Hello" and I scurried off. Here's a picture that I wish I had taken (found recently in Rainbow Magazine and upscaled with AI).
