In the early 1950s Ann Woodward found herself at the top of the best dressed list and the wife of a banking heir. But her happiness at the top of the social ladder would not be for long. It all came crashing down one fateful night in October of 1954 when booze, pills, and paranoia resulted in a family tragedy. Ann was responsible for her husband's death, but later on she would cross paths with someone who was unsuspectingly dangerous: the legendary writer, Truman Capote. This episode is based on the fantastic book Deliberate Cruelty by Roseanne Montillo.
