Manley's successor is Edward Seaga, 50, American-born, Harvard-educated leader of the Jamaica Labor Party. An experienced international economist whose campaign promised closer ties with the U.S., Seaga has already obtained financing from commercial banks to cover the country's $157 million debt through the end of the year.

She flamboyantly dallied with writers and artists: two became her husbands (including Painter Max Ernst), many her lovers (including Playwright Samuel Beckett).
