ALL ABOUT

PEOPLE

A

Actress Mackehzle
Phillips says she
“always wanted to be
like my father
(musician
Phillips) ... even though
he was a junkie.”

Now both she and

Phillips. founder of the ,

1960s rock group Mamas

and Papas, are under: —

going lreatment for
drug addiction after
squandering their for-
tunes, their careers and
rmearly their lives on
heroin and cocaine.

Phillips said he spent
more than $1 million a
year supporting his and
his third wife Gen-
evleve's heroin and
cocaine addictions.

Miss Phillips, 21, fired
last year from her
Starring role on TV's
One Day At A Time,
nearly died twice from
cocaine overdoses and
weighed only 90 pounds
when she joined Phillips
and his wife in the drug
rehabilitation program:
al a New Jersey hospital
in November.

“T wanted the weird
life, and I went for it,
and I got it,”’ she said,

Concert pianist Edwin
Kowa-lik doesn’t give up
easily.

Polish-born Kowalik,
52, says he knew he was

destined for a music -

career when he first
touched a piano.

But he was blinded by —

a fall at age seven. A
blind instructor taught
him to play Chopin by
memory, and at age 10,
he was performing for a
Warsaw radio station.
He learned to read mu-
sic again using Braille.
. Then the Nazis in-
vaded Poland, and he
had to quit his career.
He had to start all over
again a third lime after
he tost his memory ina
car crash.

He’s still playing.

“Whether you're blind
or not, if you have the
urge within, you play
because your soul is
erying for it,” he said
after a recent concert in
New Jersey.
