Gloria Grahame-Hollywood film actress (1923-81)

[Granger]

Sorry folks if this is on the inappropriate forum, but it's difficult to know where to post it!

Many years ago I read the book 'Film Stars Don't Die In Liverpool'. This book is now almost impossible to obtain, although my library is trying.

Has anyone first hand details of the weeks leading to the collapse of Hollywood actress, Gloria Grahame, with peritonitis, prior to her being flown to New York where she subsequently died. I would like to hear from anyone who actually met her in LIverpool, and details of any addresses she lived at.

Although I understand she was appearing in a play, I have a feeling she actually lived in Liverpool, possibly in some squalour, or is this a figment of my imagination?
