She was on Jay Leno's show a few years ago and mentioned coming here with her family as a child. I later found out that her family has been on this lake for longer than most of ours have. You can find historical advertisements for local plays, starring members of the Barrymore family.
There are numerous celebrities always in this area visiting. They come here to get away from the crazy L.A. scene. This is where they dress down. They don't wear makeup. As a photographer I learned that everybody looks 'normal' without help from professional hair & makeup jobs and Adobe Photoshop. Even the celebs. They have the same blemishes as the rest of us, when they choose not to hide them. Skip the hair & makeup for a couple weeks, add an old pair of jeans, a "New Hampshire" T-shirt, and a Red Sox cap... and a celeb can pass right through our crowd looking like just another tourist.
