Kitty Kelley
Kitty Kelley (born April 4, 1942) is an American journalist and author of several best-selling unauthorized biographies of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Rock Hudson, Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra, Nancy Reagan, the British Royal Family, the Bush family, and Oprah Winfrey.
Although Kelley has been called "the consummate gossip monger, a vehicle for all the rumor and innuendo surrounding her illustrious subjects" she maintains, "I am an unabashed admirer of transparency and believe in the freedom guaranteed by the First Amendment" and, to that end, her writing is about "moving an icon out of the moonlight and into the sunlight". However, as her work endured more scrutiny, many of the facts she reported did not hold up.〔
==Early life==
Kelley was raised in Spokane, Washington, the eldest child of Adele and William Vincent Kelley, a lawyer who served as president of the city's bar association. Growing up Kelley helped take care of her five sisters, Mary Cary, Ellen, Margaret, Adele Monica and Madeleine Sophie, as well as her brother, John.〔Poison Pen by George Carpozi Jr. Pg 26〕 The family vacationed in Europe and spent summers at their two lakeside cottages in western Idaho.〔Poison Pen by George Carpozi jr., pg 38〕 Kelley graduated from St. Augustine's Elementary school and then attended the private prep school Holy Names Academy〔Poison Pen by George Carpozi Jr. pg 40〕 In 1962 Kelley allegedly left the University of Arizona in lieu of criminal charges for suspected theft being filed against her, according to the biography ''Poison Pen'' by George Carpozi Jr. Her parents refused to let her live with them and sent her to live in Seattle with her maternal grandparents, the Martins. It was here that Kelley suffered a breakdown and used a wheelchair during some of that time.〔Poison Pen by George Carpozi Jr. pg 335-40〕 After this eight-month hiatus, Kelley surfaced at the University of Washington〔Poison Pen by George Carpozi Jr. Pg 45〕 where she received a B.A. In English. She worked at the New York World's Fair in 1964 and went on to become a receptionist/press secretary for Senator Eugene McCarthy.〔
Following four years as a press assistant to McCarthy, Kelley worked for two years as the editorial page researcher for the ''Washington Post''. Since then, she has had a full-time career as a freelance writer. Her articles have appeared in the ''New York Times, The Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, People, Ladies Home Journal, McCall's, Los Angeles Times'' and ''The Chicago Tribune''.
