Keeping tabs on authors in LINKcat: Nancy Milford



LINKcat

New York Times, 3/31/2022
Nancy Milford, the biographer of women who helped light up the Jazz Age — Zelda Fitzgerald, the “original flapper” and wife and literary muse of F. Scott Fitzgerald, and the poet Edna St. Vincent Millay — died on Tuesday at her home in Manhattan. She was 84. Her son, Matthew Milford, said the cause had not been determined. 
An indefatigable researcher, Ms. Milford brought the chaotic, troubled Zelda Fitzgerald and her world to vivid life in “Zelda” (1970) through letters, albums, scrapbooks, interviews with her friends and her husband’s as well as reports by psychiatrists who treated Zelda for schizophrenia. Her mental health was declining by the late 1920s and led to institutionalizations in the 1930s and ’40s.
