The Flashback Interview: Ami Dolenz
My first exposure to my next interview subject, Ami Dolenz, came when I saw her as Fran in the cult classic 80s comedy Can’t Buy Me Love during a vacation in Ireland in 1996. I liked her work in that movie, and as I grew older, I would become familiar with her through her work in movies like Miracle Beach and Witchboard 2: The Devil’s Doorway. There’s more to Ami than her acting work, though, as she’s also an author, an artist and involved with the charity Actors For Autism. I spoke to her on September 4th, and I hope you all enjoy my conversation with her. Say hello to Ami Dolenz! Johnny: Hello, Ami. Ami: Hi, Johnny. How are you doing? Johnny: I’m doing good. Ami: Good, good, good. Johnny: I have my questions ready to go. Ami: Oh, cool. Johnny: To start off with, your father Micky was, of course, a member of The Monkees, while your mother Samantha was a presenter on Top Of The Pops. With
