THE HILTONS is a sweeping saga of the success - and excess - of an
iconic American family. Demanding and enigmatic, patriarch Conrad
Hilton's visionary ideas and unyielding will established the model
for the modern luxury hotel industry. But outside the boardroom,
Conrad struggled with emotional detachment, failed marriages, and
conflicted Catholicism. Then there were his children: Playboy Nicky
Hilton's tragic alcoholism and marriage to Elizabeth Taylor was the
stuff of tabloid legend. Barron Hilton, on the other hand, deftly
handled his father's legacy, carrying the Hilton brand triumphantly
into the new millennium. Eric, raised apart from his older
brothers, accepted his supporting role in the Hilton dynasty with
calm and quiet - a stark contrast to the boys' much younger
half-sister Francesca, whose battle for recognition led her into
courtrooms and conflict. The cast of supporting players includes
the inimitable Zsa Zsa Gabor, who was married to Conrad briefly and
remained a thorn in his side for decades, and a host of other
Hollywood and business luminaries with whom the Hiltons crossed
paths and swords over the years.
