Renown as the wittiest woman in America, Dorothy Parker wrote essays articles and screenplays for over 50 years. Her sharp commentary featured in the New Yorker, Vanity Fair and Hollywood scrips, earning her two Oscar nominations. While her clever quotes became iconic, her personal life was marked by struggles with alcohol, divorce and suicide attempts. She was a bold and unforgettable literary figure. Presented by Jack Burkert. Free
