    I understand that this has become a big thing for you… The Fanny Brice legend>>>>>But when, I was a child (90 now) and listened to Baby Snooks….my whole family would shy away… Fanny Brice was a Gangster’s Moll… in the era of prohibition…Big gangter.. not a crappy bar, or a couple of bottles of hooch… Most of the Jews that I knew (Coney Island ) were deeply ashamed of her..
