While we're talking about singers who lived in the neighborhood (which we were, on another thread about Marian Anderson Historic Village), does anyone have any older neighbors who remember Nina Simone?

I went to church with a woman who lived, I think, around 23rd and Catharine when Nina Simone lived around here. She told me "we used to beat her up to make her sing."
