Pauline Phillips wrote the column from its founding in 1956 till 1987.
Her daughter Jeanne began writing the column with her in 1987.

My recollection is that, yes, the column was being ghostwritten by the
daughter, and it wasn't revealed publicly for years. Pauline had little
to nothing to do with the column after 2000 or so due to Alzheimer's.
She died in 2013.

Jeanne is over 80 now.
