And I assume you've read the very well-researched book by Stephanie
Schorow about the Cocoanut Grove? She found much research (with my
help, I might add, but she's also a very well respected media
historian, author of a number of books, and a former journalist)
about a number of the people involved in the story. I can ask her
what if anything she found about the employees of the club-- we did
find all sorts of stuff about Mickey Alpert and sort of solved the
Dotty Myles mystery.
