Two sisters flew in the ATA from You Fly, Girl by Cathy Gale | They were sleek, beautifully shaped, and earned something of a racy reputation. And that was just the Spitfires they flew.

Writer looking for ATA girls (WWII) and their descendants from You Fly, Girl by Cathy Gale | Received a request from an author who asked me to post the following: Yona Zeldis McDonough (pmcdonough1@nyc.rr.com) (I do not hotlink the email, so as to prevent spammers from grabbing it!)

I am a New York-based writer researching an article for a magazine about the ATA Girls. I am looking for their descendants, whom I hope to interview. I would like to hear wartime accounts, stories, anecdotes, memories--anything that would make that time and the exploits of those brave women come alive for contemporary readers. I am also interested in photographs and/or any other memorabilia. The interviews could be conducted over the phone or via e-mail. Many thanks for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Yona Zeldis McDonough (Mrs.)
