Q.

Do you know Sandra's measurements? I want to make her something.

A. That is very kind of you to do, but I am sorry I do not know her measurements and would feel awkward trying to find out.

Q.

Does Sandra know of this site? Does she really look at it?

A. I have been told she does look at the site frequently and is pleased with it. So if you sign the guestbook on the site she will see your wishes to her.

Q.

The guestbook/fan forum/search engine is/are not working. What is wrong?

A. First of all, thanks for telling me but this is often beyond my control. Second of all, all these things I have set up with other companies. Sometimes their servers go down for maintenence. This should only be temporary, so please try again later.

Q.

I have AOL and your pictures look blurry. What's wrong?

A. One of the many things I dislike about AOL is their web browser. If you have AOL, first sign on to it. The go up to the top taskbar to the " MY AOL" icon. Click on it. Then go to "PREFERENCES". Click on that. Then go to WWW icon. Click on that. This will open a gray box called "AOL Internet Properties". Click on the tab that says "WEB GRAPHICS". UNCHECK the box that says "Use Compressed Graphics". Click on "OK". Then you should see my site as well as other internet sites as they were intended to be seen.

Q.

Where can I find Sandra's Movies on tape??????

A. PLEASE, PLEASE READ THIS LINK and PLEASE DO NOT E-MAIL ME ASKING THIS! Since that link has been online, I have gotten even more e-mails on this subject and it really makes me wonder. There are several people on that page who can help you. I don't have 2 VCRs or the time to make tapes. I am sorry. That link above should answer all your questions. Thank you.

Q.

Should I beleive the tabloids about Sandra lately?

A. NO. Hopefully Sandra herself will let us know about her current activities when the time is right for her.She is a fighter. I know this can be frustrating, but, put yourself in her place. She deserves her privacy. Please understand and be patient and wait for the truth from her. Thank you.

Q. What is Sandra's address? Can I e-mail her? I am very concerned for her and want to thank her for all she has done for us.

A. Sandra doesn't have E-Mail but I have a business address for her:

Sandra Dee
C/o Mr. Larry Martindale Agency
18915 Nordhoff St.- Suite #5
Northridge,CA 91324

This was obtained from a devoted Sandra fan,Michael Kennedy.

Q. Was Sandra born in 1944 or 1942?

A. Many actresses have different bios on their age...I believe the A&E BIO is right, since they had a copy of Sandra's birth certificate. A couple of years really makes no difference. Personally, I don't care when she was born.

Q. Will Sandra have to have a kidney transplant?

A. According to her son,Sandra is doing better than ever. I hope you saw the A&E BIO..this was the truth and the official news on Sandra today, told by her family and done with Sandra's cooperation and blessing.

Q. When will all of Sandra's movies be on commercial video?

A. This is up to the many companies that own them (Universal, Warners, etc.). My suggestion would be to e-mail the companies and show your interest. As soon as possible I will find all the studios e-mail addresses and post them here. I will also get American Movie Classic's (AMC on cable) e-mail address up on the site...this channel as well as Turner Classic movies would be good places to start. The (former) Family Channel used to always show several Sandra movies frequently, but I don't know what happened there.

Q. Will Sandra's BIOGRAPHY be on video to buy?

A.According to the producers, the show is not available and to watch your TV listings because eventually A&E will rerun the show, sometimes within the same year.You can also keep checking the Biography site or the TV now site.

Q.What did you think of Sandra's BIO?

A. I thought it was professionally made by some very thoughtful and talented people(Peter Jones Productions).I feel that if Sandra's family and Sandra herself were involved it was going to be something very special. I was asked to enlist help from fans, so I posted the companies e-mail address when they asked me to. I also sent them a few things to use ( I noticed my American Girl "Cooking with Judy" cover was used. ) and trusted them with my precious collectibles. Everything was returned quickly to me and that in itself says this company is top notch.I was very honored to be asked to help and was happy to do so.

Q. Do you know Sandra Dee?

A.No, not really. I did recieve a phone call from her on my answering machine a little over a year ago. ( I have never erased it.) I hear from her son and his wife occasionally and they are all very nice people.

Q. Are you Sandra Dee?

A. No, I am not.I am just a fan who made a website about her and who loves and respects her.

Q.Where was James Darren ( "Moondoggie" in "Gidget") on the A&E BIO?

A. The producers said he was approached for an interview but due to his schedule was unavailable.
