Daisy Aldan died a couple of days after Anais's birthday.. A treasured New York friend of Anais, readers of this site can read her chapter in the book Celebration (Magic Circle Press: Valerie Harms and Adele Aldridge) available on our site.
Although today is a sad day hearing about her death, this writer remembers fondly many daisy days with Aldan. Meeting her at Rye, New York and having a wonderful correspondence with her for a number of years.
More information on this daisy day woman can be found on Sky Blue Press in a Paul Herron's Official Anais Nin Blog post entitled: Anais Nin's Artistic Associations: Daisy Aldan.
