Over the years, the kind of fan mail I've gotten from men has always been different from what I get from women.

I think most people, almost 96 percent, remember me as Catwoman on the 'Batman' television series.

I played many things, but that is what I will probably be best remembered as.

I had three miscarriages, then, at forty-eight, a child with serious developmental difficulties. He is a blessing and a jewel. He is my teacher. From him I get and give unconditional love.

Communities like that are really important.
