	Judith Krantz St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture - Find Articles
		Krantz's Ikehorn was blessed with beauty and some inherited money, but had gone to the "school of hard knocks" and ultimately achieved her power and abundant, minutely detailed luxuries through simple hard work.
		Yet Krantz's plots and characterizations also possess a particularly American slant to them: her heroines always exhibit great personal ambition, and succeed in business at the uppermost echelons of the once male-dominated executive ranks.
		Krantz made her protagonists quintessentially feminine, but with admirably "masculine" traits.

		Never a disciple of realism, Krantz's interweaving of plots here is too contrived and her relationships, both familial and amatory, too oblique.
		I've read most of Judith Krantz's novels and this one was a disappointment.
		The main character in Dazzle (that's her name believe it or not) may be one of the most appealing of Judith Krantz's pantheon of attractive heroines.

		Krantz describes this period as the happiest of her life, but once her parents refused to continue bankrolling her stay, she was forced to return home.
		Krantz is disarmingly honest about the limitations of her oeuvre--as she puts it, she writes "successful commercial novels" rather than "serious, poetic 'high fiction.'" Elegant prose is not her hallmark, as this rambling, superlative-laden memoir makes amply clear.
		Krantz succeeds at plumbing her childhood, family life, and Jewish roots in an effort to understand who she is. She freely admits she is not the equal of her protagonists, and that could be a major component of her resounding success.

	Lifetimetv.com: Intimate Portrait
		Krantz is known for books and characters that make readers feel as if they're hearing from an intimate friend letting them in on juicy, titillating tales.
		Born into an affluent family in New York City, Krantz led a privileged childhood marked by elite schools and mostly absent ultra-successful parents (her father was an adman, her mother a teacher and legal aid lawyer).
		Krantz and her two younger siblings were shepherded though their youth by nannies and private nurses; Krantz recalls those days as unhappy and lonely.

		Krantz was sent to expensive private schools but was unpopular and came to believe that this was because she didn’t have nice clothes.
		Krantz says her personal wealth has taken some of the thrill away from shopping: "It’s more exciting when you can’t afford it." However, Chanel is still her favorite designer.
		Krantz spoke about a magazine assignment she had back in the 1950s to capture "Golda Meir as a housewife," an encounter that wound up serving as inspiration for the budding writer.

		But Krantz (who justifiably claims that this novel "beats with a bigger heart" than her others, most recently Spring Collection) digs beneath the surfaces she unabashedly celebrates and comes up with a few metaphorical diamonds.
		Reading reviews of some other novels by Judith Krantz, I read that she uses the same general theme in all the books she writes.
		Judith Krantz is an extremely skilled writer with that genuinely, authorly flair for creating subworlds on her own terms - a talent possessed by any writer worth reading, from Dickens to Agatha Christie, whatever the genre or actual literary merit of his or her output.

	From Bris to Viagra
		Steve Krantz is sitting on an overstuffed, cream-colored chair in the two-story library of the expansive Bel Air home he shares with his wife, Judith, the famous "sex-and-shopping" novelist.
		Judith had an international best-seller with her first novel, "Scruples," the one that Steve had nagged her for years to write.
		About three months ago, the Krantzes were hosting a dinner party to benefit CalArts when Lavine chanced to wander upstairs, where Steve's large, playful colorful paintings hung in a mauve-colored corridor.

		Never a disciple of realism, Krantz's interweaving of plots here is too contrived and her relationships, both familial and amatory, too oblique.
		The main character in Dazzle (that's her name believe it or not) may be one of the most appealing of Judith Krantz's pantheon of attractive heroines.
		As usual, you get a very entertaining modern-day fairytale, lots of interesting details (this time, about the world of commercial photography and California land grants...I know, sounds like a wierd combination, but that's entertainment!), some sex scenes for mild titilation (why are the lesbian scenes the most erotic in her books?), and a satisfying resolution.
