Graham was asked by the Santo-Perkins gang to knock on her door and pretend to have car trouble since she might not open it to strange men at night.
She plays the role of Barbara Graham, a young woman who went to the gas chamber in California for the murder of an elderly woman who was killed during the course of a burglary/robbery.
While Barbara may not have been the actual killer, there is little doubt that she was guilty, as she acted in concert with the killers and was fully involved, facilitating the events that brought about the death of the elderly woman in question.

- Barbara Graham was sentenced to 10 years to life for shooting and paralyzing an innocent 23-year-old man she blamed for killing her 19-year-old son.

Barbara Graham sees society's changing view of marriage as forcing society to realize that marriage and romantic love are not necessarily connected in her essay "The Future of Love: Kiss Romance Goodbye, It's Time for the Real Thing."
Graham argues that our growing divorce and re-marriage rates indicate that our society is looking for something in marriages that it isn't finding.
According to Graham, we keep studying the biology and sociology of love in marriage, ignoring the fact that a successful love relationship and a successful marriage are two different things.

 Faces of Modern Dance: Barbara Morgan Photographs
Barbara Morgan (1900-1992) was trained as a painter at UCLA in the 1920s and, from the beginning, was inclined to explore the rhythmic motions of her subjects.
Thinking experimentally and talking with Graham, while seeing numerous performances of the dances to be photographed, observing rehearsals, exercises and classes, enabled Morgan to see that the actual statement of themes in the temporal arts is brief.
She was a member of the Graham company from 1929 to 1931, and served at various institutions including the Juilliard School 1951-1985.

Barbara Graham was a known prostitute with criminal associates.
Convicted and sentenced to death in California's gas chamber, Graham protested her innocence to the end--and many considered that she was less a criminal than a victim of circumstance and that she had been railroaded to conviction and execution.
She gives us a Graham who is half gun moll, half good time girl, and tough as nails all the way through--but who is nonetheless likeable, perhaps even admirable in her flat rebellion against a sickeningly hypocritical and repulsively white-bread society.

Barbara Graham, the piece’s subject, never got a break in all the sad, sorry years she spent on this planet.
As portrayed with enormous sensitivity and compassion by the remarkable Maggie Cino, she is a sorrowful and confused creature, living by her wits, and living for the fleeting moments of connection that bring her momentary happiness.
Die Like a Lady careens through the events of Barbara’s life like an eight ball on a pool table: stints as prostitute, secretary, restaurant manageress, convicted perjurer, and death row inmate play out in the staccato rhythms of a Barbara Stanwyck movie, reflecting the hard-living, easy-loving, goodtime girl that Graham pretended to be.

 George Graham Reviews Barbara Kessler
The 34-year old Kessler is a native of Long Island and took up the guitar at age four.
Barbara Kessler's new album Notion marks yet another fine singer-songwriter release in what is getting to be a very crowded field, not just crowded with singer-songwriters, but with very good ones, many of them, incidentally from Kessler's home base of Boston.
What sets her apart is her appealing and versatile vocal style, along with the especially fine backing musicians and the work of producer Jerry Marotta, who provide an interesting folky and up-to-date rocky backing on the CD which help both to emphasize, and occasionally to contrast with the mood of the words.
