My Letter from Elizabeth Taylor
I wrote Elizabeth Taylor in the mid-1980s when she was in Philadelphia with Richard Burton while touring with the play Private Lives. I wrote Liz a four page letter asking for an interview. I sent her an interview I did with Maureen McGovern. I received her response after the run of the play in Philadelphia (my letter arrived at the Bellevue too late). Elizabeth Taylor was an early supporter of HIV-AIDS activism.
