Thanks for all your hard work. (Of the possible high schools a Cupertinoian could have attended, I was told LynbrookFor the first time in my research for this project, I used Classmates.com because it posts scans of whole yearbooks; however, Ann did I contacted Lynbrook ‘82 graduates in search of names of people who planned their latest reunion. Cool interview---I remember when the song came out and how huge a hit it was, and I liked the video--my favorite prat was when the girls came out their Catholic schoolgirls uniforms showing they were wearing their party clothes underneath---that was fun to watch. I contacted people who were students there at the time; all remembered the shoot but none remembered useful details about Annie.I learned that the three most likely high schools for someone from Cupertino would be Cupertino, Monta Vista, and Homestead.A contact at Cupertino High School checked and Annie didn’t appear to go there.Cupertino Library looked through yearbooks for Monta Vista and Homestead from my estimated years of 1978-1982 and found no Hubbards in either except for Janice Hubbard, class of 1980, at Monta Vista. Forgot to say I loved the song too---heard it on the radio all the time back in the day. I found one, and she gave me various names including Robert (not his real name) Hubbard—who turned out to be Ann’s brother—but she did not know where he lives now. Keagy wrote the song at his apartment, near "After we started playing it a lot, Jack turned to me and said, 'What exactly are you saying?'" The song is about Keagy's little sister, Christy. The third chorus is repeated once on the album version, but not on the single.The music video (which uses the shorter single version) was filmed in A newly recorded acoustic version of the song was produced for the band's ninth album, Differences between album version and 7" single versionDifferences between album version and 7" single version
Honest to God, it did! https://www.noblemania.com/2014/07/the-girl-in-video-sister-christian-1984.html I called Robert Hubbards I found in public directories till I reached Ann’s sister-in-law, who was most kind. A must-have”“Unique…eye-catching...engagingly told…complex and thorough…will be a hit”“Seriously researched...so memorable...lush, emotive brushwork...[the book] will make the lasting impression [Bill Finger] deserves”“Purposefully and meaningfully (and beautifully) written” All these interviews are great. This quiet story is less about war than the toll it takes on those who fight, the possibility of reconciliation, and the value of understanding other cultures. I've known Mascha for years, and never heard a peep about all this...she is seriously one cool gal!
I contacted her but did not hear back.I asked the high schools (in particular San Rafael High School) if they’d archived an article about the video shoot (I assume a school paper would have covered something as atypical as that), but no luck.I called various Hubbards in the 1982 Cupertino area phone book I asked Jeff Watson of Night Ranger via writer Paul Liberatore; Jeff kindly responded but did not remember useful details.I asked other former San Francisco models in this series (I posted a screen grab from the video on the Cupertino Facebook page, thinking that while such efforts usually go nowhere, I had to continue trying any possibility; a few days later, someone named Robin responded…recognizing the photo as Ann Hubbard, Lynbrook High School class of 1982—and even posted her yearbook photo! It has something for children and adults, fans of comics and otherwise...I dont use the word a lot, but the book is very charming—Young Adult Books Central (four out of five stars)An Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) Notable Children's Book 2019Colonial Dames of America 2019 Young Readers Award WinnerFreeman Book Awards for Children's and Young Adult's Literature on East and Southeast Asia Honorable Mention 2018"Sometimes the most inconsequential episodes in larger stories can turn out to be the most moving, and so it is with "Engrossing and unexpectedly touching … lovely story of reconciliation""Such a cool story...remarkable... We...need this book right now""Nobleman knows just the right tone to strike with this story, and he unfolds its events with a storyteller's flair. Right?" Thanks. She is even more beautiful now :-) I am glad she was willing to do the interview. "Sister Christian" is a power ballad by the American hard rock band Night Ranger. My comment about Boogie Nights? I do indeed need a ride, thanks. Night Ranger's drummer, Kelly Keagy, wrote this song about his sister, who is 10 years younger than him and was growing up fast.Essentially the song is about her coming of age. Jake from Houston, Tx If the actress who played SIster Christian is Annie Hubbard as someone mentioned earlier, I think I might have found her working for a plastic surgeon in Arkansas.
