Rick Springfield visits BookPage

Posted on 22 October 2010 by Trisha, Managing Editor

latelate at night by rick springfieldToday we welcomed Rick Springfield to the BookPage offices. In a video interview (coming to our YouTube Channel on Monday!) Fiction Editor Abby Plesser asked the author—who, as a voracious reader, was very interested in the office bookcases—about his candid new memoir, his family life, his music and more. One moment that we didn’t get on camera: Springfield says that more than one fan has told him that after reading Late, Late at Night, they were inspired to smell their dog’s feet. “You were right: they smell good!”

Look for more Springfield on Monday. Until then, rock out on this Friday afternoon to the original “Jessie’s Girl” video from 1981.

    OMG!! I love Rick! You guys are so lucky to have met him. I saw his interview on Good Morning America and it brought a tear to my eye. Such rough times and we all love him so. Sigh. I can’t wait to read his book.
