About the play and playwright

Bessy Marbury and her friends Elsie de Wolfe, Anne Vanderbilt, and
Anne Morgan provide a glimpse into the world of several famous women
of a time when the love that dares not speak its name flourished
behind damask-covered walls in the high society circles of New York
and Paris.

Alfred Allan Lewis began his theatrical career as an actor fresh out
of college appearing with Mae West in Diamond Lil. Soon after, he
wrote the NBC Peabody Award winning show, A Tribute to Eugene
O'Neill. O'Neill's widow later asked him to write a staged biography
of her husband, Gene, which was done as a companion piece to the
posthumous premiere of his one-act play, Huey, at Bath Arts Festival
and in London's West End. His play, Diplomatic Relations, was
performed all over the United States and filmed for television. A
Miami production starred Claudette Colbert and Brian Aherne. He has
written many television scripts for CBS Playhouse, The Doctors, and
Edge of Night as well as the cult Gothic serial Dark Shadows. He has
collaborated on books with Sylvia Sidney and Gloria Vanderbilt. He
has written eighteen books including several Book of the Month Club
and Woman Today book club selections. Among his works are: Miss
Elizabeth Arden, Man of the World, Three out of Four Wives, The
Evidence Never Lies, and Ladies and Not-So-Gentlewomen, from which
he adapted his play.
