Muses: Jean Ross

Womanica - A podcast by Wonder Media Network and iHeartPodcasts

Jean Ross (1911-1973) inspired the character Sally Bowles, the cabaret singer in Christopher Isherwood’s novel, Goodbye to Berlin, as well as the musical adaptation, Cabaret. Where fictional Sally was untroubled and naive, her real-life counterpart was driven, politically-engaged, and curious.
