Though Dominick Dunne seemed to live his entire adult life in the public eye, Robert Hofler reveals a conflicted, enigmatic man who reinvented himself again and again. Dunne was, in turn, a television and film producer, Vanity Fair journalist, and author of best-selling novels. Money, Murder, and Dominick Dunne brings to light a number of his difficult and tragic relationships: his intense rivalry with his brother, gay lovers he hid throughout his life, and fights with his editors. Hofler discusses the painful rift in the family after the murder of Dunne's daughter, Dominique—and Dunne's coverage of her killer's trial, which launched his career as a reporter.

Robert Hofler is the lead theater critic at TheWrap and the author of The Man Who Invented Rock Hudson, Party Animals, and Sexplosion: How a Generation of Pop Rebels Broke All the Taboos. He lives in New York City.
