Her stepfather was William S. Paley and for a wedding present he and her mother--a very prominent "society woman" known as "Babe" gave them an apartment in the Dakota. Their lives were the subject of a big spread in (I think) Vogue entitled "The Young, Joyous Life" that may friends and I obsessed over for weeks. <br /><br />To show how times have changed, she dropped out of Wellesley to marry CB--hard to imagine that happening now. Why to I remember all this!<br /><br />Wilmetwilmethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07225033956260957150noreply@blogger.com
