LifeLilly was born in South Pasadena in California and she was schooled in Santa Monica.[1] Lilly was a contract player for film producer Cecil B. DeMille in her youth, before dating actor Ronald Reagan in the 1950s after his divorce from Jane Wyman.[1] Two letters that Reagan sent her during their relationship were auctioned at Sotheby's by Lilly in 1988 while Reagan was serving as President of the United States; the letters were bought by Malcolm Forbes and given to Reagan's wife, Nancy.[1][3] Lilly was a socialite and wrote several books about people of great wealth including Glamor Girl (1977; with co-author Robin Moore) and Those Fabulous Greeks: Onassis, Niarchos and Livanos (1970).[1][2] Lilly has been cited as, and claimed herself, that she was an inspiration for Holly Golightly, the lead character in Truman Capote's novella Breakfast at Tiffany's.[1][4] The title of Lilly's first book, How to Marry a Millionaire was adapted for a film of the same name starring Marilyn Monroe and Lauren Bacall.[5] Lilly published an updated version of the book in 1984 as How to Marry a Billionaire, commenting that "A million dollars isn't much money these days. You can't even get a decent house for that."[1] The New York Post columnist Cindy Adams said that Lilly was "never fond of poverty", and Lilly herself said that the people she wrote about as a gossip columnist were sometimes "shallow" but were "pleasant and they smell good and they eat well and drink good wines, and that's all right."[1] Lilly wrote for several publications, including as a contributor to Avenue, Cosmopolitan, Ladies' Home Journal, McCall's magazines, as beauty editor of Town and Country.[1] On television Lilly was a commentator on WPIX and a guest on panel shows and The Merv Griffin Show.[1] Bibliography
