Lipton’s Journal/December 17, 1954/54
I understand now what Danny [Wolf][1] meant when he said Bea [Silverman] has become a caricature of me. Wise Danny. He understands so very much.
Note
- ↑ A close friend of Mailer’s in the 1950s, Daniel Wolf (1915-96), the co-founder of the Village Voice, introduced NM to his second wife, Adele Morales. Bea Silverman: NM’s first wife, who he met when she was a student at Boston University and he was at Harvard. They married in 1944 and their only child Susan, was born in 1949. After their divorce in January 1952, Silverman (1922-2016) moved to Mexico, married Steve Chavez, and became an M.D. psychiatrist.
