I Made It Up.

Dorothy Parker detested Ayn Rand. When she reviewed Ayn Rand’s
Atlas Shrugged for The New Yorker she wrote: “This is not a novel to
be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force.”

 Dorothy left her sizable literary estate to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
She never met the civil rights activist but she felt strongly about
social justice. Within a year of her death, Dr. King was assassinated
and the Parker estate rolled over to the NAACP. That organization
continues to receive royalties from her publications
and productions to this very day.

“All those writers who write about their 
childhood! Gentle God, if I wrote about mine 
you wouldn’t sit in the same room with me.”
– Dorothy Parker (1893-1967)
