1.  Describe yourself as if you were writing a personals ad.
Xaviera Hollander of Happy Hooker fame has come a long way since
1971. From Happy Hooker to Happy Cooker to Happy Booker, she wrote 18 books about eroticism  with great success. She has also produced English theatre plays in Holland for the last 10 years - in particular, the expats love her. After a 35-year career as sex-advice columnist for Penthouse magazine ("Call Me Madam" column), she is presently on the lookout for a new (syndicated) column about lifestyle and human relationships. Move over Ann Landers!! Xaviera is also interested in producing and hosting her own TV talk show with interesting international guests.

2.  What's the title of your autobiography?
The latest documentary that has just been produced is called Xaviera, The Happy Hooker.

3.  Who plays you in the movie?
Lynn Redgrave

4.  Who do you go to for advice?
My sponsor in a 12-step self-help group to shed weight. So far I have managed to get rid of 12 kilos in three weeks time.

5.  What makes you cry?
Sensitive inter human situations, films about the holocaust, beautiful music, seeing victims of  world disasters like the tsunami or 9/11, physical pain if it becomes near-unbearable, tears that sometimes roll down your cheeks after  a great laughing attack. Crying for happiness after making love to who you think is the love of your life.
