COMING UP - SHE'S CALLED THE COURTESAN OF THE 20th CENTURY

She was married three times, but she was the mistress of several rich, important, and powerful men who she did not marry.

*Alexander Liberman, said "She was part of a very grand tradition of mistresses kept on a grand scale."

Yet she was ridiculed and made fun of behind her back.

We're devoting two months to her!  Her life intersects with more than one person who you've read about here at MISTRESS MANIFESTO BLOGSPOT.   By using the search feature embedded in this blog on the side bar or going through the archives, you'll be able to read about some of the other women and men who were in her life - and she theirs!
