Great answers, Sammi! Great to learn more about you. Now, it's my turn (gulp)
1. What was the happiest period of your life and why?
2007, which was my year of heaven. It was the year I discovered Brokeback Mountain, my new friends, and gained a new purpose in life.
2. What was the saddest time?
I haven't really had a sad time. I guess it would have to be when my father died, in the early 1970s.
3. Who is your best friend?
My best friend is a gay man, who I feel a very deep and close connection with, as if we have been friends for several lifetimes. He is also my "travelling buddy" and we've been all over the country together.
4. What’s something about you that not many people know?
People here on BetterMost know the most important things about me. It's people in my real life who don't know much about me!

A documentary filmmaker.
