Paul, My mom Gladys Lane (Diamond) worked as a singer & part of the social staff during her 2nd stint there in 1962-63. We were there for a few summers 1956-57. We stayed at a small building at the bottom of the hill across from a small cas station. My father Jack Diamond used to pal around with Irving G. when he came up weekends. He was about 350 lbs at that time & everyone made a big deal when he would dive off the high diving board. Does the name DR. Robert Kamin rind a bell?
