Joan Fontaine, FOX NFL Sunday, David Caruso
—Joanne M., Iowa
Oscar winner Joan Fontaine, 83, retired from acting about five years ago and lives in Carmel, Calif., where she’s an avid golfer and a prizewinning tuna fisherman, but avoids the spotlight. She is best known for her role in Suspicion and also was in movies such as Rebecca and The Women. De Havilland, 85, lives in Paris, is working on her autobiography, and completes crossword puzzles in her spare time. She probably is best known for playing Melanie in Gone With the Wind. “Much of what has been written about me is total fiction,” de Havilland says. “This book is my opportunity to get quite a few things clear. Clear to me, to begin with.”

I would like more information about David Caruso. He was my favorite character on NYPD Blue. What has he been doing?
—Vida R., Arkansas
Known to NYPD Blue fans as Detective John Kelly, Caruso currently is starring in Session 9, a psychological thriller that hit theaters last month. He also co-starred opposite Russell Crowe and Meg Ryan in Proof of Life, an action thriller that reunited Caruso with director Taylor Hackford. Hackford directed Caruso in one of his first big-screen roles, that of the terrified flight cadet in An Officer and a Gentleman. Caruso also starred in the television series Michael Hayes, which ran for one season on CBS. The Queens, N.Y., native lives with his wife, Margaret, in Los Angeles and has a daughter.
