Hairy ProposalDanny DeVito was not sure what to do after high school. "I was sort of hanging out at the house," he once recalled, "and my sister Angela said, 'Why don't you become a hairdresser and work for me at my salon?'" Devito did so, though his motivations were only tangentially hair-related: "I figured, well, I'm not doing anything else," he explained, "and I could meet a lot of girls there!"
[Girls had not played an especially large role in DeVito's adolescent life, in part because of his height. "When I was young, I always wished I were taller," he once said. "I was plagued; I couldn't slow-dance with the girls I wanted to because my face would be in a spot where I might be thought of as [shy grin] moving too fast."]
