Please remember in your prayers Doris Eaton Travis, who died today at the age of 106. She is believed to be the last of the Ziegfeld Girls. I saw her last month as she opened the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS annual Easter Bonnet contest where she was still kicking up her legs and giving a big welcome to the theatre full of people. Her love of show business was obvious, and her youthful spirit was a joy to see. Check out the feature about her on Playbill.com.
God bless her. She was a Broadway baby right up until the end!
