Just three weeks after her last chemotherapy session in March, Tara was back as Roseanne Roseannadanna for the first Gilda's Club international conference in Montreal.

In the 1970s, Zweibel, 55, helped create the "SNL" characters Roseanne Roseannadanna and Emily Litella, played by Gilda Radner, who died in 1989.
The Weekend Update "news" segment of the show featured letters from Zweibel's brother-in-law, Richard Feder - who really did live in Mediterranean Towers off Linwood Avenue - and asked less-than-intelligent questions that were answered humorously by comedian Radner as commentator Roseannadanna.
Now Zweibel revisits Fort Lee, using the borough as the setting for "The Other Shulman," (Villard, $23.95), his tome about a stationery store owner in the Linwood section who runs in the New York City Marathon.
