Today's autographs 12/27/03 + interesting fact

I wrote to Susan Hawk who was one of the more popular contestants on the first
survivor. I'm always curious how many autographs reality/celebs get. Anyway, I
asked and she my answered my question. She said over the last 3 years, she has
done more than 2000 requests ttm. Thought some of you might find that
interesting

I meant to say I'm always interested in how many autograph requests they get.

I am too. Imagine if someone like her gets that many, what it must be
like for someone like Travolta, Hanks or Cruise.

Author Dean Koontz was asked in an interview how many requests he gets per
year and he said around 10,000

It's pretty amazing isn't it? But a few things come to mind why she may get
soooo much fan mail. Survivor is the #1 rated show when it's on, the
contestants that were on the 1st survivor were given a celebrity like status
for awhile, and they got more press then some of the other editions. I also
believe she was in the final 4, which gave her more exposure time. She was also
a very popular contestant who was outspoken and seemed to make an impression on
people, unlike some of the less interesting players. I'm sure she still
receives a lot of fan mail, but I have a feeling the bulk was probably right
after survivor 1 ended, although I could be wrong. I have written to other
survivors and have received 1 page letters back, so I doubt they all get the
same amount of mail (although, now I'm curious) she gets. OTOH, I wrote an
email to a contestant from The Amazing Race and I offered to send a sase for an
autographed photo. He said I didn't need to do that, and he would be more then
happy to send me an autographed pic. I'm not sure what this means, but he said
he has sent out a few autographed photos, but I was the first person ever to
ask. Regardless, I was happy with the success. I have regular contact via email
with a former Russ Meyer actress. I may inquire about what her fan mail is
like, because she is a great ttm signer. The whole thing is kinda intriguing.

It would be interesting to hear from some of the secretaries of those big
names, how they handle all that mail. If George Lucas really gets 40.000 a
month, what do they do with that?

I am glad I got Tom Hanks when he was making "Turner and Hootch", right before
he became huge...it pays off to get people before they are big names..
