Biography
American socialite from a noted family, the daughter of "Black Jack" Bouvier and sister of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. She sought a form of self-expression but apparently lacked the incentive or discipline to carry it through. In 1973 she signed a hefty contract to write her memoirs but abandoned the project. She tried hosting a TV show that did not continue. Her interior design business had some success but became too taxing. She did write a light book with her older sister, "One Special Summer." Pencil-thin, a fashion plate, her greatest note was for the luxury and frivolity of her jet-set lifestyle and extravagant spending.
Lee made a second marriage to 19-year-older Polish nobleman Prince Radziwill; son Anthony was born in 1959 and daughter Christina in 1960; separated 1971. Her third marriage in 1988 was to film director Herbert Ross; divorced in 2001 shortly before his death.
On 10 August 1999, her son Anthony, 40, a TV producer, died after a decade-long battle with cancer.
Radziwill died on 15 February 2019 in New York City, aged 85.
