Dominick Dunne is a great story teller. He blends pathos with humor & brutal candor. Dunne is part of the popular culture about which he writes and speaks with sly wit, scorn and deep familiarity. He lives to say the words, This is a great story. Usually charming, sometimes vindictive, often controversial, Dunne is a complex person. Both social climber and iconoclast, he gets inside the story like no other society writer can. He loves to talk and name drop and he can get away with it, because he is often the best character in his own tales. Dunne has style. He knows how to work a room, how to party, what to say and how to say it. He has earned his status as the preeminent profiler of high profile miscreants. Dunne is obsessed with whatever he is working on. Ever since his own daughter, Dominique was murdered, Dunne has dedicated himself to documenting the trials and tribulations of the wealthy and powerful. He is brave – a decorated war hero – and eagerly confronts the high and mighty. And who better than a celebrity writer to chronicle the affairs of the rich and infamous.
