...Miriam, a ghost tale in the manner of Henry James, a loquacious Nanny (Mildred Natwick) is persecuted by a dead-eyed little girl (Susan Dunfee). Capote, who wrote the story at the age of 17, may be excused for an inability to distinguish between the gothic and the baroque. The Perrys, who clutter the episode with hollow scenes, flat performances and melodramatic terror-music, cannot be so easily...
...Miriam Beerman, 46, lives in Brooklyn, where her husband teaches high school. She paints such pretty topics as shrieking faces, jackals and concentration-camp victims because, as she says forthrightly, "I've always been furious at the world." Born in Providence, Mrs. Beerman studied under Yasuo Kuniyoshi at Manhattan's Art Students League before taking off to France to immerse herself in Goya, the German expressionists, and (as her painting style shows) Britain's Francis Bacon.

And Miriam, a TV film based on an early short story, will run next year...
Tricked out in gaudy tribal trappings, Black Power Warrior Stokely Carmichael, 26, and Click-Singer Miriam Makeba, 36, celebrated their recent marriage at a reception held in Mount Vernon, N.Y., by Akili Danieli, Tanzanian Ambassador to the U.N. Married secretly about a month ago in Washington, D.C., the couple canceled their plans for a mammoth reception because of Dr. Martin Luther King's assassination. Now the newlyweds have little time for honeymooning. Miriam went to South America for a monthlong concert tour; Stokely holed up in Washington and let the world know that Black Power machinations and marriage were...
