Cover art for The Ballad of Dorothy Parker lyrics by Prince

Dorothy Parker was an American wit in the 20s and 30s who wrote for the New Yorker. She was basically brilliant, and obviously, terribly witty. Ever heard that little saying, "men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses"? Well, she said that. She wrote poetry and short stories, mostly. Check out the Portable Dorothy Parker for a little taste of her. Which is a book. In case you had your doubts.
