(18 June 1965 - 30 June 2010) (his death) (1 child)
Even her 46-year marriage to Dr. Leonard Gordon, a cardiologist, turned out to be a sham.
She stoically portrayed the happy housewife while her “nice Jewish husband” became increasingly tyrannical and possessive, monitoring
her every move.
She felt claustrophobic, entrapped like an exotic bird, but despite her angst she lacked the courage to leave. They also had a daughter and she did not want to break up the family.
“I was going insane,” she admits.”It was horrific because no one else had a clue. I played a role for a very, very long time.”
When Gordon died three years ago, she finally found her freedom. “It was an astonishing discovery,” she says. “After all the years of supervision I can do whatever I want. It was a very long time to be that unhappy.”
