She raised her eyes to the ceiling, hit my knee, shook a fist at imaginary enemies. It was difficult for me not to laugh. This fun ny little lady seemed to epi tomize all of the distress, the anger, of a classical Jewish mother. She was dubbed the Em press of Beauty; in society she was known by her "Good name,'' Princess Courlelli, but to her wary staff Helena Rubinstein was simply "Ma dame". Vliil e still in her early teens she left her na tive Poland for Austra lia, where she used a fam ily face-cream recipe to es tablish a cosmetics empire that continuesto flourish. By her death in 1965 she had amassed a personal fortune that made her one of the world's ten richest women.
