...others suspected that she lounged around lanterns for immoral purposes. No matter. The lament that began as the signing-off tune of Nazi-occupied Radio Belgrade eventually crossed Allied lines, was translated into 42 languages and became the great hit of World War II. German Singer Lale Andersen, whose sensuous, never-never-land tones made the record so popular, is now retired, but last week, at 59, she published her memoirs, recalling her surprise at Lilli's phenomenal success. To commemorate the lamplight girl's international appeal, the publishers threw a party aboard a Russian tourist steamer docked...

Light drifts slowly up through the paint and glows silently on the surface. Paintings that seem monochrome - Resnick's work always has one dominant color, whether cobalt blue, pink or a peculiarly sensuous acid green - disclose, on study, fascinating inflections and qualifications.
