UNANG LABAS

Ang Good Life Magazine ay unang lumabas sa sirkulasyon noong June 5, 1996. Ito ay inilimbag ng Bonum Publicum Inc., at naglalaman ng mga informative aricles tungkol sa mga iba’t-ibang paksa at personalidad. Subalit tumagal lamang ito ng walong buwan sa sirkulasyon. Sa unang labas, ito ay pinatnugutan ni Edwin P. Galvez. Siya ay hinalinhan ni Joanna D. Nicolas sa mga sumunod na isyu.

The first two issues of Good Life:

Larawang Tribiya

         Isa sa mga tinaguriang pinakamagandang bituin ng MGM “Golden Age” ay ang Austrian-born Hollywood actress na si Hedy Lamarr (tunay na pangalan Hedwig Eva Maria Lichtwitz Kiesler, 1913-2000). Narating niya ang tugatog ng kasikatan sa pagganap bilang Delilah sa pelikula ni Cecil B. DeMille na Samson and Delilah, ang highest-grossing film ng 1949.

          Noong 1951, napangasawa ni Lamarr ang nightclub owner, restaurateur, at dating bandleader na si Ernest “Ted” Stauffer (1909–1991). Nang taon ding iyon nakatambal niya ang komedyanteng si Bob Hope sa pelikulang My Favorite Spy.

          Isa pang hindi malilimutang pagganap ni Lamarr ay bilang Joan of Arc sa epiko ni Irwin Allen na The Story of Mankind (1957).
