we spent all those years admiring her voice in other womans rolls. I distinctly remember Deborah Kerr and Audry Hepburn singing in those films and feeling so in awe and excitement at the incredibly beautiful voices of the songs. Later when I learned it was Marnie Nixon I really wanted to see what she looked like, There was no internet then so I went to the library looking through newspapers just to see her face.
Lovely start for a Sunday morning , Thank you .
You're quite welcome!
