The Amazing and Talented Sally Field!

Actress Sally Field has starred in a multitude of roles over the years, from the adorable "Gidget" in the 1960's television series of the same name to portraying Mary Todd Lincoln in the 2012 film "Lincoln".  Include her roles in the movies "Smokey and The Bandit", "Mrs. Doubtfire" and "Forrest Gump", a recent spin in the ABC series "Brothers and Sisters" and countless other projects and Sally Field has certainly had an amazing career.  She has also won two Academy Awards for Best Actress in her career, as well.

Ms. Field has been a celebrity that we have wanted to meet for quite some time so we jumped at the chance earlier today when we heard of an opportunity to finally meet her.  Upon us asking, Sally quickly signed one photograph for my partner and one for me, moving swiftly afterwards to avoid the ensuing paparazzi.  After a couple of minutes of chasing after Sally, the cameras soon decided they got their shots and left her alone.  Sally was talking to the people with her and we heard her refer to the paparazzi as "those horrible people".  I was behind Sally and said, "Ms. Field" to get her attention.  She either did not hear me or was ignoring me, so I repeated her name.  This time she looked at me and seemed relieved in realizing that we were not paparazzi.  I asked if we could get a photo with her and Ms. Field smiled and said, "Sure."  My friend truthfully told her that she is her favorite actress, which Sally seemed to really appreciate.
