American visiting The Ritz all obey — volatile player? (9,6)
I believe the answer is:
elizabeth taylor
'player?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'american visiting the ritz all obey volatile' is the wordplay.
'american' becomes 'a' (common abbreviation - e.g. in organisation names).
'visiting' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'volatile' indicates an anagram.
'the'+'ritz'+'all'+'obey'='theritzallobey'
'theritzallobey' is an anagram of 'elizbethtaylor'.
'a' going into 'elizbethtaylor' is 'ELIZABETH TAYLOR'.
Can you help me to learn more?
