#3 Mike:

Agree with you on the US State Dept. connection, but am deeply troubled at the other assertions! Many of my closest friend here have had a lot in common with her!

#4 Beosoker,
Sadly, Miss Tallulah never hid her proclivities, but say this about her: she never took any sh*t about it, as demonstrated by the following quote:

"My father warned me about men and booze... but he never said anything about women and cocaine."

#7 I bet she was a thespian too!

I read somewhere there was a political campaign during the Victorian age - I can't remember who it was, where the "smear" against the other guy was - "...his sister is a notoriuos and unrepentant thespian."
Pretty funny I think.

#8 In her later years, while entering the Brown Derby restaurant, Tallulah ran into a young starlet who held the door for her, saying "Age before beauty!"

Unfazed, Tallulah breezed past, saying "Pearls before swine!"...

#10 JerseyMike that was the George Smathers vs. Old Man Red Pepper for a Florida Senate seat back in '58. Pepper was the incumbent, Smathers won. Pepper latter won election to the US from Miami.

#11 And her daddy wasn't a diplomat, he was the Speaker of the US House of Representatives.

#14 Shipman, as I remember, Claude Pepper also practiced nepotism in his very own family.

#15 3 out of 4? Which item isn't bad? I put my money on lesbian. Offspring of diplomats are a well known evil.

#16 Indeed Eric he did, he was a bad 'un. I think his brother Frank (seriously) is still alive, lives up the street and spends his pension playing the lottery.

#17 She was gruesome. She affected a drole accent to mimic a bona fide thespian, in order to proffer false credentials. She was one of the first of the no talent celebrities: famous for being famous.
