And yes, Liza has not only the burden of ghastly parenting and then becoming a de facto parent just at the time and age she was managing to make a break from the past and chart a new course. Once again, I have the advantage of NOT having to deal personally with performers I love and I do love Minnelli. At her peak [which, really, lasted decades] I personally witnessed Liza utterly levitate Carnegie Hall, Radio City, the Beacon, the Wintergarden, and other theatres here in the NYC metro area. I'm certainly sorry if you had bad experiences with the lady, but such is life and we all have bad experiences at work. Liza is like a character in a Greek tragedy who managed to pretty much both exceed and side-step public expectations. I will always wish her the best; she certainly made my life better! In closing ... Monroe, Garland, Joplin and Morrison are beloved for being troubled, lost souls and dying young. Liza had the utter temerity to keep living. You. Go. GIRL!!!
