Tracy Peacock Tynan came of age in London and New York during the 1950s and 60s. Her parents - the renowned theatre critic Kenneth Tynan and the author Elaine Dundy - threw lavish parties where style was essential and guests included some of the greatest Hollywood and literary legends: Laurence Olivier, Vivien Leigh, Orson Welles, Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal and many more.
