Fan Q&A with Michael Vartan
Many, many thanks to Lori from Vartanetc! DO NOT REPOST ELSEWHERE!
In June 2001 fans had the opportunity to submit questions for Michael Vartan via vartanetc.com, thanks to help from Michael's manager Stephen Hanks.
All of the questions that were submitted to this site were collected and provided for consideration, however, due to the high response and time involved, not all of them could be answered.
A huge thanks goes to all the people who participated, and to Michael Vartan and Stephen Hanks for their time and making this possible.
Some responses below may not exactly be word for word.
