Julie Hayden was an American author, who also worked on staff at the "New Yorker" magazine. In 1976, she published a collection of short stories, The Lists of the Past, her only book. Day-old Baby Rats is one of her famous stories, which was chosen and read by writer Lorrie Moore on the "New Yorker" podcast with fiction editor Deborah Treisman. Hayden's story collection was recently selected by bestselling author Cheryl Strayed for republication with Pharos Editions out of Seattle, Washington, and will be published in May 2014.Hayden is the daughter of Pulitzer-Prize-winning author and poet Phyllis McGinley.
Julie was probably best known for her two Herbal Essence commercials from the mid-1990s, having a "truly organic experience" - moans of pleasure in washing her hair in an airplane bathroom, heard by the entire plane. For the 2013 Grammy broadcast, this 20 year old commercial was re-cut to include Nicole Scherzinger saying the familiar tag line "I'll take some of that.".
