Vinson Valega: Biophilia

Read "Biophilia" reviewed by Karla Cornejo Villavicencio

News: Obituary

Doris E. Travis, Last of the Ziegfeld Girls, Dies at 106

For a quarter century, Florenz Ziegfeld auditioned hundreds of thousands of young women vying to become chorus girls, the Ziegfeld Girls, those lace and chiffon visions of glamour who were as much a part of the Jazz Age as Stutz Bearcats, the Charleston and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Doris Eaton Travis may have been the youngest Ziegfeld ...
