[Vwoolf] Was VW left-handed?

[Jeremy Hawthorn]

Not according to this article, which says that Kidman is left-handed and had to learn to write with her right hand for the movie!

cool question! Apparently, Nicole Kidman performed Woolf as left-handed in The Hours: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/3585117/Nicole-Kidman-as-never-seen-before.html

Hi all, I should know this, but I don't.  Was VW left-handed?

I ask this because in his sketch of VW at the composing table for setting type, Richard Kennedy shows her holding the composing stick in her right hand and reaching for type with her left, which is unusual.

Can someone let me know?  Thanks, leslie
