Doris Eaton Travis was the last living Ziegfeld girl, she passed away at 106 years old in 2010. Ten years ago, Diane Naegel interviewed her for Zelda Magazine. It was Doris’ last published interview.
Until now! Diane and I met Doris the last time Doris came to visit New York, to talk with her and give her the newly published issue of Zelda, with her interview, and I took her last formal portrait. While we were there the wonderful singer and actor David Giardina videotaped her final interview, discussing everything about her remarkable life and incredible career! You can watch it here now, at Doris Eaton Travis – Last Private Interview. To learn more about Zelda, and get the latest issue, simply go here: Purchase Zelda!
