Ms. Kitt was an “acquired taste” for many who couldn’t reconcile her personal roots with the persona she carefully developed. She feigned an indescribable accent that many in the United States thought pretentious and intentional. However, few new much about her accomplishments to entertainment outside of her unique rendition of “Santa Baby,” and her appearances as Catwoman on the hokey “Batman” television series in the 1960’s.
