Author Reading | Michael Gross reads from his book, Rogues' Gallery: The Secret History of the Moguls and the Money that Made the Metropolitan Museum


“Behind almost every painting is a fortune and behind that a sin or a crime.” With these words as a starting point, a leading chronicler of the American rich, begins the first independent, unauthorized look at the saga of the nation’s greatest museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In this endlessly entertaining follow-up to his bestselling social history 740 Park, he pulls back the shades of secrecy that have long shrouded the upper class’s cultural and philanthropic ambitions and maneuvers. He paints a revealing portrait of a previously hidden face of American wealth and power.
