A quick google search shows that it was Ayn Rand's husband, Frank O'Conner, who was the alcoholic. Her lover, Nathaniel Branden, was also married. After Branden broke off the affair, Rand publically cut off all ties with him, writing a 6-page essay in her newsletter, in which she repudiated both Branden and his wife.

Part of the story can be found here.

Actually I know of all this because I have read BOTH Nathaniel Branden's kiss and tell biography, JUDGEMENT DAY, and likewise his wife's biography THE PASSION OF AYN RAND. I was not mentioning these because I was still waiting for the liar 'annyokie' to give me a source and explain her comment..........

"Ayn Rand was an alchoholic nutbag."

Did you read my Post #86 where I stated..........
"I absorbed everything (And I mean EVERYTHING!) Ayn Rand had written during my early to mid-20's."

Let me amend THAT: "I have absorbed probably everything (And I mean EVERYTHING!) either written ABOUT or BY Ayn Rand.

Have you also read the responce (Post #81) 'annyokie' wrote to 'The Drowning Witch'?

Is there anything else I can help you with?
