    Nice to be reminded of her. I saw her in THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST in LA in the mid-1970s. Delicious she was.

    I understand that on occasion, she liked the girls.

    Miss Browne had predilections for both girls and boys over the years, as, I believe, did her last husband Vincent Price... Jx
