I have that book; it's wonderful. What a day of loss.

I enjoyed her book, "Sweet Music: a book of family reminiscence and song".

Her page on "Cleveland Women"

Helga Sandburg Crile has died in Cleveland at the age of 95. A writer, painter, poet, folk singer, horsewoman, dog breeder and all around bon vivant, Helga spent time i New York in the late 40s and early 50s with Pete Seeger and Jean Ritchie and others. When Jean played a concert at the Cleveland Museum of Art some years ago, I was able to put Jean and George up at the Alcazar Hotel, a block or so away from Helga's house, so they could have some time to visit. Always a big smile, and news about something interesting or artistic going on.
