Robyn
Bell
If only wealth and success could buy Robyn Bell a better
laugh; over the years nothing has changed it. And how
she has tried! Grave effects of a BA in Visual Arts and
a BS in Zoology made little dent on her donkey-bray slippage
of silly sound. Even a dose of culture, administered during
years abroad in Spain, Italy and India, had no effect
on the chicken-cello chuckle lurking in her throat. Yet
daily she triumphs forth, through booby traps of jokes
and tickles, to nourish her love of art, nature and dancing
in red shoes. |
