  • 43: Gilded Cage: Marie Wilmerding
    Dec 18 2024

    A woman, clearly suffering from mental illness, is publicly shamed and ostracized. It’s a tale as old as time that could be about anyone from Blanche Monnier to a dozen Disney Channel stars. In this episode, Maggie tells us one such story about a Gilded Age socialite who was involuntarily committed not once, but twice—the Vanderbilt Heiress Marie Wilmerding.
