Miami arts patron Dolores Ziff dies at 85 Best known as a generous patron of the arts in South Florida, Dolores Barwell Ziff played many other roles in life -- farmer, benefactor to numerous charities, U.S. Navy servicewoman, accomplished cook, horse-breeder, actress, gunnery instructor, art teacher, skin diver, author, antiques dealer and rally-car racer.

Sorry to drag this post from the dead, but Dolores would be very shocked to see her death notice preceding her by several years. She is very much alive and well. I found this post because I was doing some research on her in her movie role in Dr. No. Here is a picture I took of her and her husband Sanford the day she was given an award by a local opera group. http://theoperasociety.org/2008-divas-diamonds/dolores-ziff/ Feel free to download it and examine the EXIF data for the date and time of the picture: February 26, 2008, 1:13pm. This event took place at the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 Resort, Fort Lauderdale, FL. According to IMDB, she was born 16 February, 1925. http://imdb.com/name/nm0444180/
