Danforth Prince Book order (chronological)

Mercedes de Acosta, a self-defined "seductress of beautiful women," was born in 1892 into a wealthy family with ties to Spain's Dukes of Alba. Benefiting from a privileged upbringing, she became a prominent figure in the Belle Époque and a notable lesbian activist until her death in 1968. Known for her romantic liaisons with numerous high-profile women, including silent film mogul Nazimova and iconic actress Greta Garbo, she thrived during the sexually liberated era of the Silent Screen and early Hollywood. Within the secretive lesbian circles of mid-century America, she earned the title "Hollywood's Greatest Lover." Her life was marked by a series of passionate affairs, which she candidly recounted in her 1960 memoir, "Here Lies the Heart," where she "outed" several of her partners. In her later years, facing health challenges and financial difficulties, she sold love letters from her famous lovers for publication. Before her passing, she shared her life stories with film historian Darwin Porter, requesting he keep her secrets until her friends had passed. Porter respected her wishes, delaying publication until 2020, resulting in a groundbreaking exploration of the underground lesbian culture in the arts during the first half of the 20th century. This work connects previously unlinked narratives and offers a courageous look into a hidden world.
