[The majority of the information gathered for this filmography

 March/June 1992, pp. 45-51 & 53.  Other information courtesy of
 Michael Wong.]

                    CYNTHIA ROTHROCK BACKGROUND:
                       (also from PREVUE 87)

* Native of Wilwington, Delaware; reared in Scranton,
       Pennsylvania
* First black belt at 17
* 33 years old, as of 1992
* 5'3'', 114 lbs., 34-25-34, as of 1992
* Author of "Dynamite Kicks"
* Writes monthly column for INSIDE KUNG FU magazine
* Workout leader of 1986 self-defense video for women
* Chosen to co-star with Sylvester Stallone in a William
       Friedkin/Joel Silver-produced project called THE
       EXECUTIONER, based on Don Pendleton novels
* Was up for the female lead opposite Michael Biehn in NAMELESS,
       but the part went to Patsy Kensit
* Was scheduled to have a network television pilot in Fall 1992,
       but it fell through

P.S.:  Also, she works out with Chuck Norris sometimes, runs a string of
martial arts schools, and is a form and weapons champion.  As far as her
*acting* goes, she's no worse than Steven Seagal or Jean-Claude van
Damme.  In fact, in Asia, she's more popular than these two guys
*combined*!

     The following are all the individuals I forwarded this filmography
to in case any of you would like to contact each other.  Rothrock fandom
is not too big in this country yet, so we need all the solidarity we can
muster!  8)

P.S.:  Yeah, so the folks at anime-l [a/k/a rec.arts.anime] might not be
enraptured by this post, but I *have* seen posts about Jackie Chan and
Cynthia Rockrock on there before (this is where I got Peter Wong and
Richard Paw's addresses from), so I figured -- what the heck, how often
do I post on this list, anyways?  ;)
