Mrs Maxwell had no feelings at all for the workers who lost their pensions after "Robert Maxwell'' absconded with the pension funds and then was killed
Hmmm…..I wonder if it was she who stole the money and had him killed?
>anons, reading this post made me think of a CDAN post i read a couple of weeks ago..
>my first thought was maxwell sisters
it sure does sound like the Maxwells.
But, who is it talking about at the end of piece..who disappeared?
who is in the background of Epstien and G.Maxwell?
Prince Andrew and Clinton
Who is in the background of Robert Maxwell?
His wife and London
After all, their relationship began in the last days of the war, following the liberation of Paris, when he was a young adopted-English officer, and she a translator and hostess-organiser in one of the army clubs. A nice middle-class French girl, daughter of a silk merchant in Lyons, she was captivated by the young Maxwell. Although a little hard to imagine now, then, she says smiling, he was extremely handsome - a young Gary Cooper.
With a growing French inflection she continues. ``I was in that club for three months, it was the war, and all those men had no manners. They would maul you and it was very difficult for a woman to keep herself to herself. Bob never behaved like that and that alone for me was enough. Then I talked to him and straight away I had a conversation unlike that I had ever had with anyone else.'' - Mrs. Elisabeth (Robert) Maxwell

Her dedication, however, to motherhood and wifeliness was close to saintly. It cannot have been easy bringing up nine children, at first without much help. Every time Bob looked at me I had another child,'' she once said. Reproduction has its rewards, though. She thinks it may need more than one person to fill her husband's shoes.Perhaps six,'' she muses, and at least five of those are her children, Ian and Kevin in Britain, and Christine, Isabel and Ghislaine in America. Her son, Philip, a physicist, and daughter Anne remain outwith the tendrils of the empire.

She has decided that the only way to continue, as she did when her two children died, is by throwing herself into activity. The Maxwells organised Remembering for the Future, an international conference on the Holocaust in Oxford in 1988, and she has decided to run another in Berlin in 1994, to take advantage of the opening up of Eastern Europe. ``It's what my husband would have wanted.'

Elisabeth Meynard, as she then was, had been working as an interpreter for the Welcome Committee, whose aim was to introduce Allied officers to French people who were eager to meet them. She sent him to some good families, but he kept coming back to the committee until she realised it was herself that he wanted to get to know. She married the man she called her "powerful Adonis" on March 15, 1945.
They were in many respects an unlikely couple. Elisabeth Meynard was a haute-bourgeoise descendant of the old Huguenot aristocracy. She had been born in 1921 in a village in the province of Dauphiné in southeastern France. Her father, Paul Meynard, had inherited a fortune in gold but had lost it in the casinos of Monte Carlo. Her mother, Colombe Petel, was from a humbler background in the Pas-de-Calais but had undoubted courage. As a telephone supervisor during the First World War, she remained at her post to pass on information about the advancing German Army as it marched into Arras, an act which had earned her the Croix de Guerre in 1917.
Maxwell, by contrast, was a penniless Jewish Czech soldier-of-fortune who had lost almost all of his family in the Holocaust. He had looks, charm and potential, however, and while Elisabeth Meynard had an impeccable ancestry, she must have been all too well aware that her family's finances were looking perilous.
