April 2, 1963:  The Lufts (Judy, husband Sid Luft, and children Lorna and Joe Luft) returned to New York.  They missed the opening of the off-Broadway show, “Best Food Forward” featuring Judy’s daughter Liza Minnelli.  The official story was that they missed a flight, but allegedly the real reason was that Judy purposely did not attend as she didn’t want to take attention away from Liza.
