Kitty Carlisle Hart passed away last week. She is best remembered for her ‘To Tell the Truth’ attendance. She was also quite the songstress and actress. I know her best for her participation in the Marx Brother’s ‘A Night at the Opera’. She fought to sing her own songs in that film and won.
Later she married the fantastic playwright Moss Hart and basically retired. Later still she became the darling of the New York social set and raised untold zillions in cash for lots of artistic groups.
I’m very sorry to see another of a more civilized time in America pass away.
