Description

David Fleming, Erin’s nephew, offers raw and compelling insight into the complex life of Groucho’s “secretary.”

He recounts visits to his aunt at Groucho’s home and encounters with the man himself. We are treated to contemporary letters from Erin, describing life at the Marx house, her relationship with Groucho, and her later descent into madness. David shares firsthand memories of Erin’s battle with mental illness in explicit detail, and explains why it was predictable.

He also speculates on why Groucho was drawn to Erin.

A sympathetic yet unfettered exploration of a tragic story that you won’t find anywhere else.
