“The Irish go gray in their 20s, and I had no intention of going gray. I started henna-ing it in the ’70s because I loved legendary musical theater performer Gwen Verdon's fiery hair. A number of years ago, I spied her having lunch and decided to tell her. Without missing a beat, she said. "Yeah kid, now we both have orange hair." I henna it every five to six weeks. I even bring henna on the road while touring with my latest book, Manhattan to West Cork. My husband does it. People love it.”
