"Far more interesting to me than Henri Bergson (Nobel prize-winner) was his sister, the (to judge from her one surviving picture) drop-dead-gorgeous Moina Bergson Mathers, the dark she-genius of the Order of the Golden Dawn. She was definitely swindled when she was passed over for the Nobel Prize in Occultism. Is there no
justice?--R.S."
"True....Mina Bergson was a beauty...and a slut.I
happen to have several photos of Mina...2 in the
semi-nude originally sent to W.B. Yeats expressing her
undying love and lust.
But the untold story is far more interesting than the
occult crap.Moina inadvertently greatly aided the
allies in WWII....How you ask ? In 1913 Mina got
knocked-up in a casual romp. To avoid scandal she
birthed in Vienna in 1914...and gave the girl child to
the Kiesler family who raised Moina's bastard daughter
as their own.
The child, Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler, became famous as
Hedy Lamar(r). Any fool viewing Hedy in nude scenes in
" Ecstasy" (Berlin 1933), and later Hollywood films
...would not doubt that Hedy was Mina's daughter.
And Hedy co-invented and patented a radio guiding
system for torpedoes used effectively by the allies in
WWII. Too bad Hedy became a convicted shop-lifter
during her retirement in Florida. Her real maternal grandfather, Henri Bergson would turn over in his grave."
