Artist, author, dancer Zelda Fitzgerald (1900-1948) recorded various interpretations and symbolism of fire in letters to her husband before her death in a fire at Highland Hospital. The fire at Highland Hospital was initially reported as an electrical fault, but as decades pass one nurse, Willie Mae Hall, arouses suspicion due to her admissions of arson at the hospital.
