The New York society columnist's first book.

Doris Lilly was a great friend of Truman Capote’s and one of several role models for the character of Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. In fact, it was Capote, advising Lilly to write what she knew, that inspired this book, her autobiographical story about moving to New York to meet Mr. Ready Cash. This book was adapted into the famous film starring Marilyn Monroe, How to Marry a Millionaire.
