About Vera Ida (Mirzah) (Mirzah) DeKosenko

from Peter Chesler:

"I am Norman and Russies oldest son...

When I first moved to NY in 1967 I had lovely lunches, walks and tours of the NY museums with Aunt Mirza. The family oral history lesson were great but by that time she was living in a small room across the street from her former apartment at the Des Artiste and was, in retrospect quite frail, and it was a miracle that we could spend the time that we did...stories about Picasso, the des Artistes (where we subsequently lived) and the bohemian scene in New York and Europe are still fresh in my memory but it would be nice to know more and to see pictures"
