Pannonica 'Nica' de Koenigswarter (1913–1988) joined the Free French Resistance in WWII. Moving to New York in the 1950s, she became the fairy godmother of modern jazz.
She sheltered musicians, paid medical bills, and provided rent for bebop innovators. Both Thelonious Monk ('Pannonica') and Horace Silver ('Nica's Dream') composed jazz standards dedicated to her. Charlie Parker died in her suite at the Stanhope Hotel in 1955.
