The Last Time I Saw Liz

Dick & Liz in "Private Lives"

In the early 80s, brother John and the SJG went to the late, great Shubert in Century City to see Short Jewish Gal Liz Taylor (she converted at the age of 27) and Richard Burton in "Private Lives."  It was campy and over the top and a big thrill. 

Those lips, those eyes

"National Velvet."  "Father of the Bride."  "Butterfield 8."  "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"  AIDS activist.  Philanthropist.  Perfume mogul.  Jewelry maven.  Oft-married.  When's the last time I got to use "oft"?  A spunky broad who spoke her mind.  She will be missed.
