Author: Finletter, Gretchen,
Title: From the Top of the Stairs.
Description: NY, Atlantic Monthly, 1946. VG in G DJ. The daughter of Walter Damrosch tells of her early encounters and conflicts with pianos, performers, politics and parties. In the Damosch quarters, three pianos were usually going at once, while a celebrity rehearsed or indulged his temperament in the drawing room. Growing up, the Damrosch girls saw it all, and were mixed up in most of it. They lived for the theater, opera, Hippodrome, and for impromptu performances at home. DJ edges chipped and price clipped.
