She’s attractive, she’s funny, and yet she doesn’t seem to have starred in very much that I’m familiar with. However, she did have three key roles that had already elevated her into someone that I was anxious to meet. Dana Wheeler-Nicholson made her first personal appearance at an autograph show at the Chiller Theatre expo on April 28, 2012. Oddly enough, three years earlier as I was flying to Italy, I was certain that she was sitting behind me on the plane. The lady did a good job of convincing me that she was not in fact Dana Wheeler-Nicholson, but I felt the need to tell the real Dana Wheeler-Nicholson about it just to see if she flinched. She didn’t.
She also had an interesting offer on her photos. The deal was $20 for an autograph and $10 for a photo op – OR – $40 for two signed photos and a free photo op. As much as I hated this deal, I must admit it was an upsell stroke of genius. And besides, she had photos of two out of the three performances that meant something to me: Fletch, in which she played Gail Stanwyk, and Tombstone, in which she played Maddie Earp. (The third meaningful role was in the episode of Seinfeld titled The Doodle).
She was really a sweet lady and she made it a pleasure to meet her. Had I had the guts, I might of asked if I could borrow her towel since my car just hit a water buffalo.

So was she on the plane?

I don’t think it was her. I didn’t get the impression that the real Dana Wheeler-Nicholson would have lied about it. And the fake one didn’t seem like she way lying either.
