Comments: Country music songwriter from the DC-area married to Benjamin (Ben) Adelman. She was credited under her name, Hope Harlow, or Cindy Davis.

Ben and Kay ran an independent DC-area recording studio in the 1950s and 1960s, and also produced music and had some small labels (including Kay Records). Ben often would recoup his costs by asking the recording acts to give co-writes to his wife using the "Cindy Davis" or "C. Davis" pseudonym (and sometime as "Bob Davis" for himself). Not certain if this was applicable for Hope Harlow or songs credit in her name as well. So it's difficult to say which songs Kay actually wrote vs. one's she just received a co-write on for production.
