We will never forget our dinner with Eartha Kitt and her
devoted publicist, Andrew E. Freedman, at Elaine's Restaurant
in Manhattan. Ms. Kitt was full of charm and captivating show
business stories. She was a true lady and an evening in her
company was the stuff of dreams.
Eartha Kitt was one of the guiding influences on
cabaret art in the 20th century. She had an
influence that will last far beyond her 81 years.
