But it wasn’t ever for film or for television. No, it wasn’t that kind of acting. The kind of acting this man was somewhat masterful at has another name - imposter. He lived an inauthentic life as a pretender, a charlatan, a grifter. He was drawn to all the finer things in life, the high society, money, wealth, status...the more bombastic, the better.

And he would go to any lengths to ensure his secrets were kept - even murder. This is the Tale of the Rockefeller that Never Was…
