I had to lie when I went up for the REIVERS with Steve McQueen. I said I was 23. They didn't want to see anyone over that age. I went to Army Archerd at Variety and I showed him my birth certificate which I had to alter to make me 23 I turned the 1940 into 1946. And then when I was retirement age and needed my Social Security I had a really hard time proving I was what I am. It's very hard on actors...petty little casting directors look for reasons to throw you out of the running. Now I'm writing a book Sharon Farrell Hollywood Princess from Sioux City Iowa and I want to be honest...I was filming in Cuba in 1959 and had an affair with Che. Honesty is best but Hollywood is a Brutal Town. I'm 70 now and I am gorgeous I look 55. And I feel great and I have a man who is 61 who makes love to me 4 or 5 times a day. We've been together over 3 years now.
