Abstract: The family of Cauchy transforms [C_{g}(z,w) = -frac{1}{pi}int_{mathbb{C} } frac{g(u)}{overline{u-w} (u-z) } da(u ),] where the measurable function $g$ with compact (essential) support satisfies $0leqgleq1,$ and suitably defined for all complex $z,w,$ is closely connected to the theory of Hilbert space operators with one-dimensional self-commutators. Based on these connections one can derive the inequality [vert 1-exp C{g}(z,w)vertleq 1. ] Here, using elementary methods, a direct proof of this inequality is given. The approach involves a detailed study of the convex family of integrals [I_{g}= -frac{1}{pi}int_{mathbb{C} } frac{g(u)}{overline{u+1} (u-1) } da(u),] where $g$ varies over the set of measurable functions with compact support satisfying $0leqgleq1.$ These integrals are transformed to a tractable form using a parametriztion of the plane minus the real axis using the family of circles passing though the points $+1,-1.$ The characeristic functions of discs bounded by these circles are unique points in the boundary of the convex set of values of the family of integrals.
