As the movie version of "Wicked" nears release later this week, the original Glinda Kristin Chenoweth is making the rounds, remembering her time in the musical. Oddly enough, I only discovered the acting/musical superstar Kristin Chenoweth after I was pitched interview back in February 2005. She was releasing a gospel album, "As I Am." The publicist told me she'd become famous for a role in "Wicked," a musical about the Wicked Witch and there was some question about whether or not faith journalists would be interested. At that time, I'd never heard of the musical, either. But I knew plenty of friends who loved her in the "West Wing."
