After the success of his New York Times bestselling book Vanderbilt, about his mother’s family, Anderson Cooper began thinking about the once formidable Astor clan. Cooper, who had a passing acquaintance with Brooke Astor, the last doyenne of the family, contemplated how nearly all the Astor real estate, money, and power were gone, along with the New York society they dominated. So, what happened?, he wondered. How did one of America’s greatest fortunes disappear? Join us when his good friend Andy Cohen discuss Astor: The Rise and Fall of an American Fortune, the story of an American dynasty whose trajectory follows a uniquely American arc of acquisition and loss, of glory and shame.
