Where Are They Now - Friday, February 3, 2017
Hello fans,
The other night I watched 'Eyes of a Stranger' and thought that the lead was the actress that played by Cruise Director Julie McCoy on the Love Boat. After cruising imdb I learned that I was right.
Then I wondered, "What's Julie been doing lately?" So today we will catch-up with actress Lauren Tewes.
Take care,
Steve
