12.3.2025 12:26Comment on The “C” Word by Alice(Photo by Maryanne Christiano-Mistretta, Presby Iris Gardens, Montclair) #cancerThe “C” word.I found out two days ago and needed time to process.

Maryanne Christiano-Mistretta and Antonia Pancel, March 2024 Happy Monday… My tally for the past few months = 8 doctors, 2 tests, 2 upcoming tests + 1 upcoming surgery.

7.3.2025 18:58Comment on Darryl “DMC” McDaniels Promotes New Book at Local School by Margaret AnneYesterday I was honored to report on Darryl “DMC” McDaniels coming to a local school. The article will be published in Union County Local Source next week and then on the Worrall Media website. I’ve been inspired by DMC when I reported on him speaking on mental health last year at Seton Hall University. You […]

3.3.2025 16:02‘I Don’t Want to Be Like You’ a story about survivalThis was the third year in a row my husband and I saw “Jesus Christ Superstar” being show at Villa Victoria Academy in Ewing, NJ. I’ve posted about the first two years, so they can easily be found. This year was sad because Bob Bingham is no longer with us. But they did a lovely […]
2.3.2025 12:28JC Superstar Final Showing at Villa Victoria AcademyWell, we saw this one coming.Rest in paradise, David Johansen.A huge inspiration in my musical collection. I saw him perform countless times — NY Dolls reunion, solo performances, Buster Poindexter, the Harry Smiths, and a Blues Cruise tour. I not only met him several times, but also interviewed him for the Entertainment section of The Montclair […]
1.3.2025 16:37Rest in Paradise, David JohansenI’ll see you on the light side of the Moon. Reporting on Ramadan for News-Record — and joining in on the celebration. The moon was lit at sunset and will remain lit for the entire month of March — a time of self-reflection. So nice that Dennis was able to accompany me; and see all […]

27.2.2025 11:55Happy Retro Day!Gary Scotti and his pup Kylie (Photo by Maryanne Christiano-Mistretta) Here’s my article on the closing of Scotti’s Record Shop: https://unionnewsdaily.com/news/local-music-fans-are-sad-about-record-shops-closing? But read the article before commenting. It’s not a bad thing that he’s closing, he is happily retiring, not being forced to close. Sad for all of us who loved the store, but let’s […]
25.2.2025 15:48Closing of Scotti’s Record Shop — Summit, NJI spoke about this yesterday in a fulfilling conversation. I’m a self-employed journalist and it’s my mission to give a voice to the Black community, the LGBTQ+ community, the Jewish community, senior citizens, our first responders, those whose lives have changed because of an organ donor, the local art scene, Veterans, and to animal rescues.
