How a Mid-Century Paramour Became a Democratic Power Broker
Briefly

"Pamela Harriman's life exemplifies a complex interplay of privilege and seduction. Despite her connections and allure, her rise serves as a critical lens on women’s political roles today."
"Purnell's biography seeks to reshape Harriman's legacy, arguing that previous portrayals were steeped in misogyny, reducing her to mere stereotypes of a gold digger, thus undermining her true contributions to the Democratic Party."
