BackgroundShe was born in Manhattan, the younger sister of George, Ira and Arthur Gershwin. She was the first of the Gershwin family to perform as a child, and she brought home a good sum of money for the time.[1][2] Personal lifeShe married Leopold Godowsky Jr., co-inventor (with Leopold Mannes), of Kodachrome color photography. Godowsky was also first violinist with the Los Angeles and San Francisco Symphony Orchestras and performed with his father, the world-renowned pianist Leopold Godowsky. Actress Dagmar Godowsky became her sister-in-law. Frances and Leopold had four children: Alexis Gershwin, Leopold Godowsky III, and twins Georgia Keidan and Nadia Natali. All four children were involved in performing and the fine arts. Frances traveled to Europe with her brother George and performed at parties with him. She also performed briefly on Broadway. After she married, she continued her artistic activities, at one point winning a French painting award. In her later years, she returned to singing again and recorded the album For George And Ira in 1973. She died in 1999, aged 92. Her final resting place is the Gershwin Mausoleum, along with her husband, brothers, and parents.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} References1. ^{{cite web|last=Mcg|first=Robert|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1999/01/20/arts/frances-godowsky-dies-at-92-last-of-the-gershwin-siblings.html|title=Frances Godowsky Dies at 92 - Last of the Gershwin Siblings|newspaper=New York Times|date=1999-01-20|accessdate=2010-08-08}} {{George Gershwin}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Gershwin, Frances}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1999/jan/21/news/mn-190|title=Frances Gershwin Godowsky; Sister of Composer|newspaper=Los Angeles Times|date=1999-01-21|accessdate=2010-08-08}} 14 : 1906 births|1999 deaths|American female singers|20th-century American painters|American Jews|Jewish singers|People from the East Village, Manhattan|George Gershwin|20th-century American singers|Painters from New York (state)|Artists from New York City|Singers from New York City|Burials at Westchester Hills Cemetery|20th-century women singers |
