Meredith Baxter is an amazing woman. I met her about a year ago on the Sweet Cruise where she and girlfriend Nancy Locke came out publicly as a couple and then returned home to come out to the world at large. I knew she was planning on coming out soon, but when she came home to a Perez Hilton mention, she had to work quickly to stay ahead of the gossip. I was impressed with the dignity and grace she showed during her interviews and I am proud to call her my friend.

Meredith is soft spoken, kind, gentle and loving, and she listened attentively while I bemoaned the sad recent break-up story of my 27 year partnership. She is wise and evolved—kind of like having a stunningly beautiful big sister. She also clearly has a wild side. She looks you dead in the eye and is unapologetic and intense while she unwaveringly describes her interesting life.

Over the past year I’ve visited her in LA a few times and she has shared with me about writing her memoir—what a long and difficult road it’s been getting the whole story down on paper. I’m excited to see what she has to say. After having heard her describe a few excerpts, I’m confident it will be a bestseller!
