The Real Sally Bowles Could Sing, and She Didn't Sound Like Liza Minelli

Alexander Cockburn on his father's second wife, Jean Ross, who once knew a guy named Isherwood. (Scroll down.) Thanks to Ed.

Whoa, Jean Ross married Cockburn's dad? I didn't know that. I guess she didn't cease to exist when "Herr Issyvoo" left Germany, but I have her so confused with Bowles and my expectation that none of the Kit Kat Girls made it through the war. Weird.
 
I think it was her daughter who smoked a pipe, not Jean.
 
dammit, you're right. I'll get right on that.
 
Fixed.
