Description
Jane Stanton Hitchcock discusses her novel, “One Dangerous Lady.” She begins by talking about the plot of the book and how social climbing and murder go hand-in-hand. She then talks about her background growing up in high society and her first-hand experiences with social climbing. She talks about going to school with wealthy people in New York such as the Rockefeller family and the Whitney family. Hitchcock tells about her recent move to Washington D.C. and how the social scene differs from that of New York. Finally, she gives tips on how to write a novel and discusses how she takes inspiration from real life socialite scenarios.
