"HOME
SWEET HOME WITH BEN MURPHY"--Pg. 52--Visiting Ben at his
home Was really a fun "assignment" I arranged for myself
and our photographer this month! I hadn't seen Ben for over two
years! It was way back then that I had first interviewed Ben
for a small story in TIGER BEAT following his appearance in the
movie "Yours, Mine and Ours." I thought he was a doll
then and I was really thrilled when all our readers began writing
in about him when "Alias Smith and ]ones" came on the
air. Ben lives in a small, but very comfortable, apartment just
a few blocks from Universal Studios, where his series is filmed.
He had a break before they resumed filming in May and we took
advantage of his free time and made the trek out to photograph
him "at home." When we arrived, Benjamin was sunning
himself out by the pool, thankful for a few free moments to catch
some rays. Once inside Ben offered us some organic apple juice
and when we finished we began shooting the groovy shots you'll
see in this issue!
