Description: Named for a song in the 1960s musical Hair, in which her father starred, Starshine Roshell is a journalism professor, award-winning magazine writer and overwhelmed mother of two. She grew up in Los Angeles and wrote for The Hollywood Reporter before joining the Santa Barbara News-Press in 1995, as a news reporter, theater and music critic and arts editor. Her award-winning column - now syndicated to the Santa Barbara Independent and other papers - waxes sassy on sex, politics, kids, fashion, and everything else a modern gal loves to dish about. She offers a fresh and quirky take on life, from the cult of thong underwear to the availability of the morning-after pill.
Recently appearing in the documentary film Citizen McCaw, about her former employer, Starshine lives in Santa Barbara with her husband (a comic book publisher) and her sons (Stone and Dash).
2:30pm socializing, 3pm meeting starts.
Presented by the Humanist Society of Santa Barbara, a donation of $5 general or $2 from students would be appreciated. Website has maps to the meeting location and free parking.
