     Eddy Gilmore married three times. His first wife was Barbara. In 1938 he married my mother, Margaret Cook, born 1910 and still going strong. I was born in 1940 when my parents lived in Washington DC. Eddy went to Russia, divorced my mother, and married Tamarra in 43. He died in London in 1957. I met him three times.
     I’ve just asked my mother what if anything she remembered Eddy saying about Barbara. Her only story is that she didn’t know that he was married before, until he told her, bursting into tears, on their wedding night. I seem to remember her telling me or reading somewhere that Eddy and Barbara went to college together. He went to Carnegie Tech.
     I have for 25 years been the Writer in Residence at Shakespeare & Co. Librarie, 37 rue de la Bucherie, Paris.
     Ciao
