- Summary:
- "A sensational portrait of a rebel who defied society's prejudices and pinched her own version of the American Dream, The Life and Crimes of Doris Payne relates the fascinating story of how a poor, single, African-American mother from segregated West Virginia became the world's most notorious jewel thief. A glamorous 81-year old, Doris Payne is unapologetic today about the nearly $2 million in jewels she's stolen over a 60-year career as she was the day she stole her first carat."--Container.
