Picture of Sharon Tate

“Sharon Tate vows she will not be confused by the illusion of picture making and she will not be hurt emotionally. “You have to keep tabs on yourself at all times. If you start to change yourself because of this business, then you’re in trouble. When people start contriving and try to be what they are not they slowly begin to lose sight of themselves. This is when disaster can set in.”

Sharon had an upsetting experience early in the game, she walked into an agent’s office when he was on the telephone talking to an associate, and in the crudest terms he was talking about “selling” the physical charms of a certain actress. She decided then and there that the only person who would sell Sharon Tate would be herself.” — Excerpt from the May 24th, 1968 edition of The Star Phoenix by Tony Thomas.
