She was a pip. Listen to her live recordings, and you'll get a flavor for her. A friend told me once about hearing her perform (I think at Duke University, near her hometown). Not knowing what to expect, people were surprised to see this little old woman walk out on stage with a purse on her arm, put the purse down by her chair, and proceed to regale them with songs and tales, then pick up her purse and walk off. I love that image!
