ON THE RECORD: Everybody Rise! The Essential Elaine Stritch Show Recordings, Part Two
14 Apr 2013 Last week's column was the first of our two-part salute to Broadway's own Elaine Stritch, who will soon pack her bags and retrace her steps back to Michigan. In Part 1, we followed the young hopeful from Detroit to Manhattan, where she found acclaim and weathered two stormy attempts at Broadway stardom. We pick up the tale in 1970, as La Stritch meets all those "Ladies Who Lunch."
