[>] "A hoax," Barbra thought: My description of Streisand's reaction to Kennedy's death comes from Spada, Streisand: Her Life; Considine, Barbra Streisand: The Woman, the Myth, the Music; and an undated newspaper clipping, "Barbra and JFK," in the Streisand file, NYPL.

[>] "Controlled hysteria": San Francisco Chronicle, December 6, 1963.

[>] "one-girl concert": Billboard, November 30, 1963.

There hadn't been a lot of publicity: Streisand had been scheduled to appear on The Jack Paar Program on November 29, apparently hoping to tape it right before heading out to Chicago. Her name was included in hundreds of TV listings for that date. Liberace was also scheduled to be a guest. It's not clear if Streisand appeared, however; no video has surfaced, and the Internet Movie Database does not list her as a guest for that date, although it does list Liberace. Perhaps Streisand cancelled at the last minute in order to get to Chicago on time.

[>] "Not me": Script for Funny Girl, dated December 1963, Bob Merrill Collection, LoC.

[>] "This is worse than opening night": Earl Wilson's syndicated column, as in the Reno Evening Gazette, December 16, 1963.

[>] she wanted a raise to $7,500: Some reports have said that Streisand was originally signed for $1,500; however, Mike Connolly reported in his column that she was being paid $3,500, ten times what Merrick had paid her for Wholesale. As in the Pasadena Star News, October 29, 1963.

$350 a week, singing in clubs: Contracts between Lainie Kazan and the Colonial Tavern and Huddle's Embers, May 21, 1963, and September 27, 1963, respectively, Lainie Kazan Collection, NYPL.

[>] specially tailored trousers: UPI syndicated article, as in the Wisconsin State Journal, January 19, 1964.

[>] "very chummy": Spada, Streisand: Her Life.

"a note to the show": The Garson Kanin papers at the Library of Congress do not contain any material on Funny Girl. Apparently Kanin or his widow, Marian Seldes, withheld these when the donation was made, for the material does exist, or at least, it did exist when Kanin shared the letter he wrote to McLerie, dated February 28, 1964, with Anne Edwards for her Streisand: A Biography. Kanin also supplied McLerie's reply, which shows her to have been very gracious, calling her firing part of "the hazards of the trade." McLerie had, perhaps, reason to be gracious: she'd been signed to a one-year contract, so unless a settlement was arranged, she'd still be paid her full year's salary.

"the length of the musical": NYT, December 30, 1963.

"a little Burmese idol": Cecil Beaton, Photobiography (Garden City, NY: Doubleday & Company, 1951).

no longer had any real friends: Vanity Fair, November 1994. In this piece, Streisand talked about the Cormans being her only friends, not accepting invitations, and not having people at her place.
