Dahlinks – hold on to your hats for the story of Magda Gabor, the eldest and perhaps the most undercover of the Glamorous Gabor sisters. Magda, continuing the family tradition of being well-versed in the art of falling in love and getting married, also had some nasty breakups. But there’s so much more to her story, from her World War II experiences working with the Hungarian Resistance against the Nazi occupiers, to being a significant part of the brains behind her mother’s New York jewelry business. She may be lesser known than her sisters, but her story is every bit as fascinating.
