I've posted this ridiculous backstage photo of myself before ... but Miss Krumholtz came up the other day in conversation, so here she is again. In all her desperate clunky glory. She's a geek. She cannot compete in the Meat Market of Courtship. The "irresistible Paris original" which makes all the other ladies in the office look willowy and gorgeous makes her look like a halfwit in an ill-fitting prom dress. She cannot see without her glasses. But her smile is courageous. She will survive. And she'll try to be cheerful, no matter what. Even as the world of males completely ignores her.

If you ever decide to be a clown, all you'd need besides that costume are a red nose and pair of huge shoes.
