Hello, Mark, I studied with Webster Booth and Anne Ziegler in Johannesburg and I was his studio accompanist when Anne was away. We remained close friends until Webster's death in 1984 and Anne's death in 2003. I run The Webster Booth-Anne Ziegler Appreciation Group on Facebook. There is a great deal of information about them on my website.
