New for @observer: I wrote about the incomparable Dolly Parton and her priceless philanthropic legacy. observer.com/2026/08/philant…
Her music catalog, business empire, Dollywood and investments helped her amass a reported $450-650 million fortune, but she always found new ways to spend the money coming in to help others. trib.al/c5zX4ui

For the @observer: I wrote about the ups and downs (and downs) of Princess Margaret — in my latest #SocialiteStudies 🍸column. Click below. observer.com/2026/08/sociali…
She was asked to choose between love and privilege. Decades later, the only thing she truly inherited was a five-bedroom villa on a Caribbean island no one else wanted. trib.al/7vGTvmi

A fun read & a pretty cover! Glitz, Glam, and a Damn Good Time: How Mamie Fish, Queen of the Gilded Age, Partied Her Way to Power by Jennifer Wright.
(I also got the audio book & it's wonderfully read by the actress who plays Mrs. Fish on The Gilded Age. )
For the @observer: I wrote about Marella Agnelli — Truman Capote’s first “swan” 🦢 — in my latest #SocialiteStudies 🍸column. Click below.
Marella Agnelli wed Fiat's philandering heir, decorated half of Turin, and discovered that being Truman Capote's favorite muse didn't make her his only one. trib.al/QQbXphq
