59. This American heiress enjoyed some success as a sculptor, but her greater contribution was as a patron of other artists and founder of a notable museum.

60. While Holmes and Poirot were superior to the police because they were smarter, the detective created by this mystery writer was superior to the police because “the cops can’t break a guy’s arm to make him talk, and they can’t shove his teeth in with the muzzle of a .45 to remind him that you aren’t fooling.” (Well, whatever works….)

61. His plaque at Cooperstown credits him with “almost 800” home runs, but the story that he was the only person ever to knock a fair ball out of Yankee Stadium has never been proven.

70. In 1865, this entrepreneur opened a factory in Philadelphia to manufacturer a product that forever shaped our vision of the Old West.

72. This long-haired rocker sang lead on what was arguably the best power ballad of the 1980s, but in the sex tape he made with another 80s icon, he was definitely a runner-up.

Just a suggestion for other puzzlers - in your reply, just quote the entire game (or just the questions you are answering) and insert each of your answers in all caps underneath the question. We know who wrote the questions and who is answering them; fiddling with the quote/endquote stuff just makes it harder to do consolidations.
