Audrey Munson's radiant rise begins with New York's great self-glorification at the 1909 Hudson-Fulton Celebration. Centerpiece for its grand banquet: a marble sculpture of the three graces. Eighteen-year-old Audrey modeled for all three.
Soon she is posing for statues before the Plaza Hotel and atop the Municipal Building, among others, and she is the first woman to appear naked in a movie. But times and tastes change-and then come the horrors of the Great War, when artists no longer sculpt lofty themes such as "virtue" and "beauty." Her luminescent career eventually darkens into a trail of loss and despair.
Then, in 1990, a young artist gradually recognizes the same face on statues throughout the city, inspiring an intricate and often frustrating search that will lead two remarkable women to touch hands across generations.
