My Life at Grey Gardens
My Life at Grey Gardens: 13 Months and Beyond | Lois Wright
6 posts | 2 read | 14 to read
""Lois Wright was a lifelong friend of both 'Big Edie' Bouvier Beale and 'Little Edie', and she went along for the ride when the Beales were immortalized in the 1976 cinema verite documentary Grey Gardens. Most fans of the film--if they know her at all-think of Lois as the silent party guest who gave Big Edie a little index card box. Although her role in the documentary was minimized because it complicated the Maysles' vision of the documentary, Lois played an important role in the Beales' lives, including the little-known fact that she actually lived in the house"--Cover, p. 4.

I found Hippy. (if you're a Grey Gardens fan, you have to read this book)

This book is a must for Grey Gardens fans, though animal lovers be warned the cat hoarding situation (and burials - or not ... where is Hippy's body?! - on very delayed timelines) makes it a a bit cringe-worthy.
