India Has Maura To Give Thanks For
By George Rush and Joanna Molloy
Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan�s daughter has changed like a chameleon again.
Maura Moynihan is now a pop star -- in India. She has
released "Chakra; Chant" and "Injie; Party" in the 650-million strong nation. And
they have zoomed to the top of the charts.
Maura has been a comedian, a singer (Maura and the Mystics),
a cable TV producer and, of all things, a gossip columnist.
During her divorce from Richard Avedon�s son, John, a
follower of the Dalai Lama, rumors surfaced that she was dating George
Stephanopoulos (she denied any liaison).
Word is she didn�t get much of a settlement. She did get
custody of the couple�s son, who is staying with his father while mom is back
in India, where she spent her youth when dad was ambassador there.
Sen. Moynihan�s office claimed to be unaware of Maura�s
newfound success.
