Hardy -
I have always thought that the smartest people are the ones who know what
they do not know.
So learning you keep an "archive of things I will never know" has greatly
impressed me.
Similarly, my dear and very smart uncle Lucky (Lucien) used to warn me that
I still had to learn what he had already forgotten.
Having reached the age where there is much I too have started to forget,
I continue to learn much from your persistent contributionsto this list.
But please, don't give up so easily on this subject.
The exact origins of Lauren Bacall's Romanian mother may still come to
light.
It can be learned, for her mother's birth certificate must be somewhere to
be found.
For now, keep this in your archive of things you MAY never know.
In the meantime, we can remember a woman full-of-life, who was far more
than a pretty face.
Read here how this daughter of a Romanian Jewess learned to deal
with ant-semitism and other forms of intolerance:

?
and some of the things she said we could all learn from:
