Reviews

[edit]
Kilgallen by Lee Israel. New York: Delacorte, 1979. Illustrated 485 pp. Hardcover, $12.95.
Toward the end of this well-written but otherwise conventional celebrity biography, the author makes a stab at linking Dorothy Kilgallen with the Kennedy assassination cover-up. The vehicle for this is an interview Kilgallen conducted with Jack Ruby shortly before her death. The suggestion of foul play is far-fetched and only the most crazed assassination buffs will give it any credence. Definitely not a reason to buy the book. More interesting is the account of how a newsman's daughter climbs her way through the newspaper world, occasionally doing some hard reporting, but mainly reveling in gossip and glamor, and ending in a tortured marriage and overuse of drugs and booze. - D.G.[2]

Miscellany

[edit]


Noting that the judge at her sentencing had said that he never wanted to see her again "in this context," she deadpans that at least it was "not a total rejection."
