This substantial article gives an insight into the life of a very young Diane Parrish, before she stepped into the Front Street Theatre or became WKNO's “Storybook Princess.” Even at the tender age of eighteen, Diane Parrish wanted to be a star. The article opens describing the recent award presented to her by Alpha Psi Omega (a drama fraternity) for her role as “best supporting actress.” Though Diane admits, herself, that her experience in theater has never really cast her square in the limelight, she is undeterred and plans to pursue her passion with persistence. Her interest in other arts is also dipped into, detailing her flair for creativity.
