Without Prejudice is a memoir written by Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt, an American socialite, fashion designer, and mother of Anderson Cooper. The book chronicles Vanderbilt's life from her privileged upbringing in the wealthy Vanderbilt family to her marriages, motherhood, and her struggles with addiction and mental health.Vanderbilt shares intimate details about her relationships with her mother, sister, and husbands, including her tumultuous marriage to conductor Leopold Stokowski and her brief but highly publicized marriage to Hollywood agent Pat DiCicco. She also discusses her battle with alcoholism and depression, and her eventual recovery through therapy and self-reflection.Throughout the book, Vanderbilt reflects on the societal pressures and expectations placed on women in her time, and how she navigated them while also pursuing her own passions and interests. She also shares her experiences with motherhood, including the tragic death of her son Carter in 1988.Overall, Without Prejudice is a candid and introspective memoir that offers a glimpse into the life of a woman who lived through some of the most significant cultural and social changes of the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
