The "famous" Consuelo Vanderbilt was the daughter of William Kissam
Vanderbilt Sr.
The "other" Consuelo Vanderbilt was the daughter of William Kissam
Vanderbilt Jr.

When the famous one (forced to become Duchess of Marlborough by her
mother,later divorced and married a French aviator) died is well known,
but all I've seen on her niece (born 1903) is "after 1993".

She married four times,last husband(died 1969) surnamed Earl...
there is no "Consuelo Earl" in SSDI.

Anyone know details?

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,

A possibly-related question: is Anderson Cooper (on CCN or Fox) the son of
Gloria Vanderbilt?

He is, indeed. In fact, back when he was hosting ABC's overnight news
program, World News Now, his mother made a guest appearance.

He left ABC for CNN (not CCN... and not Fox). A hefty number of other ABC
News folk have also done so, and there was a serious consideration of a
merger about siz months ago.

Gloria Vanderbilt's son committed suicide.

The famous Consuelo(1877-1964) was the "other" Consuelo's aunt;
the "other" Consuelo was Gloria's second cousin.

You can find a Boldini portrait of Consuelo-the-younger and her older
sister Muriel(1900-72) on the Web,it's in a San Francisco museum.

Anyway,trying to figure out just when Consuelo the younger died,
my sources say she did die but only that it was after 1993.

Carter Cooper(1965-88),Anderson's brother,committed suicide.
Gloria Vanderbilt's three other sons,Leopold and Christopher
from her marriage to Leopold Stokowski and Anderson,who is
the youngest,are all still alive as far as I know.

So *that* explains why Anderson Cooper reminds me of Mickey Mouse. And the
many visits Ms. Vanderbilt made to the Fantasia movie set.
