found: Email correspondence from Daniella Dooling, artist-in-residence, Bard College, March 16, 2021("Her real birthdate was 4/4/1944 - however she used 1948 in her bio ... I tend to think she would prefer 1948 - we hosted a 70th birthday party for her in 2008 with her closest friends and she never told us she was actually 74:) On the other hand, I think 4/4/1944 is a pretty awesome birthdate!")
