Gloria Vanderbilt's Life in Photos
1935
Vanderbilt was born in New York City on February 20, 1924 to one of the wealthiest families in America.
Her father was railroad heir Reginald Claypoole Vanderbilt, the great-grandson of Cornelius Vanderbilt who built the New York Central Railroad, who died when she was 18 months old. Her mother was his second wife, 19-year-old Gloria Morgan.

When Vanderbilt was 10 years old, she found herself in the center of the “custody battle of the century” between her aunt Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney (founder of New York City’s Whitney Museum) and her mother. The trial became a media sensation, earning her the nickname "poor little rich girl."
Her aunt eventually won custody after revealing in the case that Vanderbilt’s mother was a lesbian and painted her as an unfit mother.

My mom, Gloria Vanderbilt, lived many different lives, in many different rooms, but these spaces were her last; a two-bedroom apartment on the first floor of a quiet building in a quiet cul-de-sac in Manhattan, with another two-bed apartment just below it, where she’d paint and write. She was 95 when she died in 2019 and had lived in grand penthouses, town houses, hotel suites, beach houses and country estates. But these apartments are where she chose to burrow in, living and working in them for the last 23 years of her life. She’d never stayed in one place for so long.
My mom cared deeply about the spaces she inhabited. She thought about them, worked on them, loved them, grew dissatisfied with them and changed them often, with a passionate intensity perhaps only readers of WoI, her favourite magazine, can fully appreciate. It was by no means a hobby or a passing fancy. It wasn’t something to be left to others. The rooms she created weren’t just a refuge. They were an essential part of who she was.
She wasn’t a fussy collector of one style of furniture or of a particular artist’s work. She’d lived with many of the same objects and furniture for decades, moving them from place to place. The only provenance that mattered to her was personal. Everything was infused with memory
