Seventy five year old photographs ... Roll #8 (India)

Keith, this labor of yours is so amazingly excellent. I especially was captivated by this last one on India- everything came in to focus and made sense. No doubt due to your history and comments. Thanks so much for all your time and energy it is well worth it. I also join those of us who would like to see a book forthcoming, of course, with the family's consent.

Another interesting little snippet:

In around 1933 Hedi Lamarr (Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler) starred in a ground breaking Hollywood movie where she got her kit off ... caused quite a sensation apparently because hollywood hadn't done this sort of thing previously. Bettina was actively involved in the movie and was one of the financial backers and spent time in Hollywood with Lamarr who was also of Jewish decent.

Hedi Lamarr was also a physicist. She had a hand in the research that eventually lead to cellphone technology.

Great stuff, Keith. Keep it going!
