Trivia
Was a first-class passenger on the Andrea Doria along with Ruth Roman, and her son Dickie when it sank on July 25, 1956. Was saved from the ship after going onto the port side of the ship and finding that side's boats useless because of the severe list. She was later rescued from the sinking liner but lost more than $200,000 worth of jewelry as well as a book manuscript on which she had been working.
