In 1957, a children's book called "The Lonely Doll" was published.
With its pink-and-white-checked cover and photographs featuring a
wide-eyed doll, it captured the imaginations of young girls and
made the author, Dare Wright, a household name. Close to forty
years after its publication, the book was out of print but not
forgotten. When the cover image inexplicably came to journalist
Jean Nathan one afternoon, she went in search of the book--and
ultimately its author. Nathan found Dare Wright living out her last
days in a decrepit public hospital in Queens, New York. Over the
next five years, Nathan pieced together Dare Wright's bizarre life
of glamour and painful isolation to create this mesmerizing
biography of a woman who struggled to escape the imprisonment of
her childhood through her art.
