So...realize I'm a bit late to the party here, but as one of the neighborhood kids Drew asked about -- lived four houses down from the Sedaris family on North Hills Drive in Raleigh and Amy and I were in jr high and all through high school together -- I can offer some perspective. The family was the most unusual/eccentric on the street, as was the house itself (a cool Modernist, set down from the street in a sort of wooded ravine; most of the neighboring houses like ours were more traditional). I was in the Sedaris house periodically, and Amy visited our house. I met David but he was five years older and seemed kind of sullen and to himself. My younger brother was Paul Sedaris' age, and they played together on at least one sports team. Overall impressions were that they were avant-garde, even then. They seemed artistic and doing their own thing. But no indication that they would ever become famous. They were just the quirky neighbor family. My recollection is the kids were mostly given free reign, more so than typical for that area in the 1970s. There was a sense of kinetic energy with six active kids/teenagers in the house. I'm not sure when their mother died, but don't recall ever seeing her. They certainly had interesting art on the walls, including a number of brooding pictures by well-known NC artist Robert Broderson, which were recently sold at auction here. Broderson's art was somewhat disturbing (look him up). Must admit that as an art collector now own one myself. Had to have made a subliminal impression on me 40+ years ago... The Sedaris family sold the house recently; their father lived to be in his late 90s. I think they owned the house since it was built, ca. 1965. I reconnected with Amy about three years ago, and we had a long talk about our lives and our youth. I asked her whether any of Strangers With Candy was based on our Sanderson High School experiences. She said not really. My most vivid memory with Amy is of she and I building the senior class homecoming float in my backyard. Let's just say it involved a giant bucket of KFC, constructed of chicken wire and 1000 boxes of different colored Kleenex, from the top of which protruded two large movable chicken legs, feet and all...😄

Don't forget the gift she gave to their dad! Amy and David's dad was obsessive about the girls keeping their weight in check (I'm putting it lightly) and was known for being very blunt if he got the impression they were too heavy. So one day, Amy uses her Strangers with Candy money to get the bottom half of a custom-made fatty suit (they come in two parts and she didn't have enough money for both parts), which she actually would wear around town with pants over it! Needless to say, their dad nearly had a heart attack when he saw her, and she'd do things to really get him going, like when she would open the fridge and bend over to look for something, and pull out a giant family-sized jar of mayonnaise and put a spoon in it! She kept it up for a few days too!

I have met David twice at two different book readings and he is just as delightful as everyone imagines him to be..the first time I met him he was making everyone give him an animal to draw in their books they were giving him to autograph and he would draw the animal then he would take a red pen and add blood to their mouths or bodies...I think we talked for fifteen minutes the second meeting about me being in the movie business and he was telling me about a movie he saw about a one eyed viking and valhalla, you just never know what is going to happen with this man...he must be exhausted after every book even but they go on for hours because he just doesn't want to cheat someone out of getting the experience of meeting him and living their dream. He is just too precious and a gift from God. And don't get me started on Amy, who I someday hope to meet and work with onscreen.

I've been to 4 of his readings, although I only twice had the patience to stand in the book signing line to meet him. I saw him last week at a small book store in southern Chicago. He became fascinated by the way my fingers bend. I never thought much of it and neither has anybody else. My fingers just sorta bend back a little more than most people. Nothing inconvenient, or crippling. The middle finger is especially pronounced. He signed in my book "I'm hypnotized by your curly fingers." Then he asked me to show my fingers to the other people in line and the employees standing around. I'm going to see him again in November 2022 when he comes back to the Midwest. I might hit all 3 of his shows in the area -- Kalamazoo, MI; Crystal Lake, IL; and Minneapolis, MN.

Favorite author n favorite cast member from Elf (AND she is way accomplished in her own right). Met D.S. at book reading/signing in Louisville, KY (of all places?) n I asked him about Amy n if they started in NYC at the same time. I also indoctrinated my teenage daughter to the delights of this fantastically American author. They appear to have lived in one of the most eclectic, interesting,and diverse circle of personalities possible for a family of 8. Not remotely perfect on the outside but SO perfect in it’s own quirky way.
