By Mary Rector-Gable Verified| Behind the Chair Verified March 30, 2016By Mary Rector-GableI couldn’t have written the script better. To interview the legendary celebrity hairstylist Chris McMillan over the phone, from his hotel room in Paris, watching the Academy Awards together? It was a happy ending to a process that spanned five days, three continents and six phone calls. Chris was flying around the world—Los Angeles to Bangkok to Paris. I would await his calls—from an airport lounge, an airplane, a hotel room.
