Anita was definitely ahead of her time as far as scandal was concerned...and ya gotta love 'er...any gal who can survive a couple bad marriages, rape, abortion, alcoholism, arrests and jailtime for possession...and yet still swing with smooth stylings like that...while addicted to heroin throughout 15 years of her career...is a marvel to me! Not to mention her fashion sense and sassy, smart-assed style!
Here's a clip taken at the peak of her career...high as a kite during the 1957 Newport Jazz Festival! You'll love checking out the amazing period fashions in the crowd while enjoying this one!
