Holy shit - listen to this story Ms. Baroque relates about Sarah Bernhardt - who died on this day in 1923. Incredible.
One of my favorite possessions is a black and white portrait of Sarah Bernhardt - in profile - that my father gave me. I had it framed in a nice burnished silver frame, old-fashioned looking. I adore it. I didn't know that story, though. I'm so glad I do now.
