No, I never did meet her. I did meet Kim Novak briefly recently and I really wanted to ask her if she had know my sorta-cousin Rita. Didn't get a chance that night, but I might next time I run into her. She's a friend of some folks from church who were at our house today, so I might get an opportunity to chat with Ms. Novak sometime. Would love to know how Rita Hayworth was perceived by the Hollywood crowd. By the way, she used her mother's maiden name (Haworth) as her stage name, but her manager advised her to add the "y" to it so people would pronounce it correctly.
