We explore the dazzling highs and haunting lows of a literary icon whose words still sparkle with relevance today.
Hailed as the wittiest woman in America, Dorothy Parker dazzled readers for over 50 years with her sharp poetry, essays and screenplays. Her clever commentary lit up the pages of The New Yorker and Vanity Fair, and later earned her two Oscar nominations in Hollywood. But behind the brilliance was a turbulent personal life—marked by heartbreak, addiction and resilience.
