Like some of today's stars, she was known to her vast public by just one name. Born into Dickensian circumstances, Leitzel became a princess and then a queen. At just four-foot-ten and less than 100 pounds, she was the biggest star ever of the biggest circus ever, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey. Leitzel had many suitors (and three husbands), but only one man ever fully captured her heart: Alfredo Codona, the greatest trapeze flyer that had ever lived, the only performer of his time to execute the deadliest of all big-top feats, The Triple--which took the lives of more daredevils than any other circus stunt. When Leitzel and Alfredo died, each tragically, the heyday of the Big Top came to an end.--From publisher description. 001473463 60010 $$aLeitzel, Lillian. 001473463 60017 $$aLeitzel, Lillian.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00407467 001473463 650_0 $$aAerialists$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 001473463 650_0 $$aWomen circus performers$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 001473463 650_6 $$aVoltigeurs (Cirque)$$0(CaQQLa)201-0113158$$zÉtats-Unis$$0(CaQQLa)201-0407727$$vBiographies.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0378258 001473463 650_7 $$aAerialists.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00798151 001473463 650_7 $$aWomen circus performers.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01177401 001473463 651_7 $$aUnited States.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01204155 001473463 655_4 $$aBiography. 001473463 655_7 $$acollective biographies.$$2aat$$0(CStmoGRI)aatgf300080111 001473463 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01919896 001473463 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2lcgft 001473463 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2rvmgf$$0(CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000519 001473463 85200 $$bsc 001473463 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1473463$$pGLOBAL_SET 001473463 980__ $$aBOOK 001473463 980__ $$aBIB
