She was an elegant soulful woman and I am sure she must have some stories left in her that we will never get to hear/read.

I can't wait to read more. I think your blog and mine are a good "fit." My blog is strictly food--mostly English and Southern (US)!<br /><br />It was also exciting to find such a lovely tribute to the elegant and enormously talented Lena Horne. I too loved the old movies when I was a little girl; and when I saw and heard Lena Horne, it didn't matter that she didn't look like me, I would have been thrilled to look like HER!
