              Kathy Zak (Formerly Kathleenann 
              Zakrzewski )says: 
            I never thought 
            too much about these days past until now.  I was never a part of any 
            one geocentric tribe.  I mingled with all of them because I was a 
            writer and wanted to know and experience as many people and things 
            as possible.  These were extremely lean days for everyone and I was 
            probably trying to decide if I should continue to look for a job in 
            Detroit, or go live with my mother, now settled in Houston.  Good 
            thing I left, though, because I started working for 
            Warner-Elektra-Atlantic in Houston on March 25, 1980.  I was the 
            first female marketing specialist for a major record label in the 
            US.  I got a gold record from Elektra for my work on Urban Cowboy 
            later that same year.  Despite all my connections, I never would 
            have gotten a break like that in Detroit.  Obviously, another 
            story. Note: Kathy
              did interviews on tape 
            with the "Freezer 
            Theater", The band 
            "Adrenalin" in 1978 and pianist  Russ Sumner.
