Or perhaps, heard of, but never heard her SING! Like Judy Garland, and Brenda Lee, she was short in height, but when she was on the stage; a giant of mesmerizing power. In her private life she fought the demons, and ran over men like a steamroller. In ‘World War two, she kissed the cheeks of Nazi High command, affording her the freedom and power of influence to save the lives of many French P.O.W.’S. I enclose just one of her flagship songs. God Rest “Le Petit Moineau”. Au Revoir.
