Money and Other Subjects

Yes, He Painted His Nails

April 16, 1999March 25, 2012

I’m so tuckered from not doing my taxes last night and worrying about how to get them done by August 15, I need a break. So what I offer you instead today are the next three chapters of Fire and Ice, my once best-selling, now long-out-of-print, biography of Charles Revson, the man who founded Revlon. Just click “BOOKS” on the header above, then scroll down to Fire and Ice, and click “excerpt.” You should find Chapters 1 through 4.

More chapters to follow soon.
