    Why Dolly Parton Never Became a Billionaire (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Dolly Parton was never a billionaire because she never allowed herself to become one. The singer/songwriter/actress was too busy giving away money and offering opportunities to the people who needed her support. The “Queen of Country” knew something about being poor. Before writing her legendary songs, she would grow up in true poverty in Sevier County, Tennessee. Born in 1946, Dolly and her 11 siblings lived in a house without electricity and had running water only, as she would joke, “if you r

    The Inheritance Princess Margaret Never Got to Keep (opens the original)

    The Bouvier Cousin Who Chose Cats (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    How does one of the most glamorous, genteel women in America end up in a “garbage-ridden, filthy, 28-room house with eight cats, fleas, and no running water?” A place where, according to the Washington Post in 1976, “the smell assaults and dominates.” The predictable answer would probably be “drugs” or “a really bad man.” But Edie Bouvier Beale’s descent from the society page to Grey Gardens infamy owed far more to her mother, “Big Edie.” This fall did not seem likely when Edith Bouvier Beale wa
