Charles Bukowski - American author

Hi,
Liza Williams was the ex girlfriend of Bukowski, just after Linda King. I am trying to find out if Liza Williams is still living. What I hear is the following:

She wrote articles for Open City and La Free Press
She worked for Island Records as a VP

Then it gets weird. In the early 90's she becomes homeless and starts living in shelters.

I searched and found this comment:

"More than thirty years ago I was a regular reader of the LA Free Press here in Cape Town, South Africa, because an old friend, Liza Williams, wrote a regular column for the Freep and sent copies back to a mutual friend. Her columns were subsequently collected into a book called "Up the City of Angels". I lost track of Liza after that. I heard she had been associated with (I think) Island Records, and the last I heard of her, more than ten years ago, she was said to be working as a non-denominational nun among AIDS sufferers in the Lower East Side, New York. Liza was, as I recall, the daughter of a chemistry professor (Lehrman) who fell foul of Joe McCarthy. Liza left South Africa after the local security police found a suitcase of explosives in her car.Does anyone know what has become of her? "

Does anyone know if she was a terrorist from South Africa? Is she a Nun in NYC working with AIDS patients?

She was about Bukowski's age, so she would be in her 80's now. Someone has to know. Maybe cirerita?

Bill
