Welcome to Duran Duran Worldwide!

Welcome to Duran Duran Worldwide!

 The is the official blog locale to find information and news about Duran Duran Worldwide efforts.  We are a Duran Duran fan site and not affiliated with the band directly in any way.

This blog replaces our blog ddrockhall.blogpsot.com.  Eventually, pertinent interviews will be moved to this blog and re-released...and this old blog will be retired.

This change is consistent with our new efforts to focus less on the Rock Hall and more on the band Duran Duran and its influence in music, media, and our lives.

The current officers for this effort are:

Kirk Harrington, Lead Effort Organizer (LEO)
Tracey Elena, Public Relations and Online Consultant (PROC)
Christian Helwig, Tech Support

Please visit us on Twitter at @DDTTRH.  We also have a Facebook page for now and you can find us at 'Duran Duran Worldwide'.


You breathe the will into the weak
And coax the cage bird to fly free
You ease the lost cause out of me
With your sweet hand to bring me home
I'm not alone
I know, I swear
If you leave a light on
If you leave a light on for me
I'll come there
You can leave a light on for me
Lyrics from Leave a Light On, by Duran Duran

Interview with the Fabulous Morgan Richter

Forward/Bio written by Josie Beaudoin, Interview by Kirk Harrington Note from Editor:   After reading this interview for editing purposes (I had very little to edit!), Kirk asked me if I would be interested in writing this introduction for it. I have to admit, I squeed a bit – I am fangirling over Morgan Richter. What an amazing individual! And you know she’s super-smart, because she is a Duran Duran fan.   Born in Spokane, WA, Morgan attended USC’s screenwriting school and upon graduation, worked in L.A. in the television industry. While that didn’t ultimately pan out for her, she was also writing blogs, and has a YouTube site ( https://www.youtube.com/user/strangesicksad ) with article-like video analyses of various facets of GenX life.
