Description
"Neysa McMein epitomized the Jazz Age flapper: beautiful, rich, and socially prominent. However, unlike many women of the Twenties, she also earned her own living, working successfully as an illustrator. Noted for her parties, social life, and unconventional marriage (she and her husband enjoyed what we today would call an open marriage), Neysa's life was never dull. She entertained all the notables of the time, including Noel Coward, Harpo Marx, Helen Hayes, George Gershwin, as well as the members of the Algonquin Round Table. In this carefully researched biography, Gallagher provides an amusing and informative portrait of Neysa and her crowd, offering considerable insight into their lives and loves. Nancy R. Ives, Language Skills Ctr., State Univ. of New York at Geneseo. Copyright 1987 Reed Business Information, Inc."--Taken from amazon.com.
