S19E09: Who’s That Lady | Mona von Bismarck, The Kentucky Countess (Done & Dunne Crossover)
In today’s crossover episode with Alicia’s other podcast, Done & Dunne, she takes us through the surprising life and many marriages of mid-century socialite and fashion icon, Mona von Bismarck. From humble origins on a Kentucky horse farm, Mona found marriage to be a feasible path to the good life, and was the wife of the then-richest man in America for nearly three decades – but that’s far from the end, or the best, of her story!
