Dana Delany declines deets on date with John Kerry
Boston Herald ^ | March 31, 2010 | Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa

Posted on 03/31/2010 5:45:14 PM PDT by george76

It’s been more than 20 years, but “Desperate Housewives” star Dana Delany still won’t spill about her date with Sen. John Kerry - a night so strange it could have happened on Wisteria Lane!

“Oh, it’s ancient history,” Dana demurred yesterday when we again tried to get her to give it up. “And it wasn’t really a bad date - it was just a good story.”

The Phillips Andover alum met Kerry, then a bachelor, at a veterans event in D.C. when she was starring in the Vietnam-themed TV drama “China Beach.”

The senator invited her to dinner then back to his apartment to see his “war films.” (Why, oh why, did Kerry bring a video camera to war, Dana wondered . . .) Apres screening, the senator attempted to, shall we say, storm “China Beach.

"The Phillips Andover alum "

I always though Phillips Andover was an all-boys school. Who knew? I wonder if it's always been like that.

She went for one year, her senior year, which was the first year Phillips went co-ed.

'She went for one year, her senior year, which was the first year Phillips went co-ed."

Thanks. She's right around my age, which means she was there sometime in the early-mid'70s. I'm surprised it's been coed that long. I looked it up, and Exeter is also coed now. I thought that was all-boys.

For whatever reason, many of the prestigious all-boys schools transitioned to coed. But, many of the all-girls schools haven't. It's strange.

Too many lawsuits by girls who wanted in.

Same deal—Exter went coed in the 70’s.

“deets” is either slang for “details” or it’s an insect repellent which obviously didn’t work if it attracted Lurch.

iirc, the Herald story back in the day on this had Dana trying to jump Kerry’s bones, and all Johnny wanted to do was watch his old war movies.

She must have been looking for a cure for her insomnia.
