Dear Bruce,
Thank you.
Unfortunately, I was unsuccessful with a search of the New York Times site.
There were plenty of Libby Holman references going way back, but not the recent one you mentioned.
Do you recall any details which may help an advanced search?
For those listmates interested, I did find the another link that has some interesting facts and great photographs.

There is also a YouTube link to "Moanin' Low", the song she made famous.
