Summary
This week, our investigation turns to Huguette Clark, a Gilded Age heiress whose money ultimately purchased a very reclusive life. Huguette was a talented painter, devoted to her mother, and certainly liked collecting dolls too. Also included in this week’s story are many expensive real estate threads, a trashy divorce, an ugly legal battle over her will, and a connection to Sunny von Bulow too.
