Secret Boyfriend Wednesday: Archival Edition

You can not deny that the young to middle-aged Sam Shepard is secret boyfriend material. More recently he is still a very handsome man, but like many SBs, his secret boyfriend status has a time limit. He has been discussed a lot recently around my work since the UT Fine Arts Library recently acquired his archive but never hired an archivist. It makes archivists sad when librarians process collections. And archivists in Austin need jobs! Hire an archivist! Sam Shepard would want it that way...

But we will always have the movies like Days of Heaven and The Right Stuff. Plus all those plays, where you can't actually look at him, but you can imagine him writing and being all boyfriendy.

And somehow, having a long-term relationship and a couple of kids with Jessica Lange gives Shepard extra SB points. There must be a formula in there somewhere.

Totally agreed. Sam Shepard is perfect choice.
