Elsa Maxwell tells her fascinating life story, coming from a poor background,
becoming a pianist, an accompaniast to a vaudeville star, a song writer,
a partner in two Paris nigthclubs, a consultant to a dressmaker,
a press agent for Monte Carlo, an actress in movies, radio, television and theatre,
a script writer, a newspaper columnist, a contributor to magazines and a lecturerer.
But she is most well-known for her fabulous parties which attracted some of the most important people in the world.
