BAD INFLUENCE
The story of Anna Delvey, a fake European heiress, which is the basis for the popular Netflix show "Inventing Anna" including unpublished material by the journalist who brought this story to public awareness and is one of the main characters in the show.
When Jessica Pressler's New York magazine cover story about fake European heiress Anna Delvey came out in 2018, it was an immediate sensation and went viral. It quickly became one of the magazine's most-read articles of the year and soon after, Shonda Rhimes paired up with Pressler to create a Netflix show based on Pressler's reporting. Inventing Anna premiered in February 2022 with a star-studded cast, featuring Julia Garner as Delvey and Anna Chlumsky as Pressler.
Based on all-new reporting from Pressler, this is the wild tale of just how Anna Sorokin became the Anna Delvey we all know. It is the story of two nobodies with huge dreams that almost came true. It is the story of how, by dropping the right names, getting into the best parties, wearing the latest thingsand also by creating fraudulent money wires, pretending to be European bankers and occasionally stealing tens of thousands of dollars from friends and hotelsa socially awkward Russian girl and a small-town Midwestern boy could come dangerously close to pulling it all off. This is the story of Anna and her boyfriend and acco malice Hunter, but it is also the story of the world that gave rise to them, the top international bankers, lawyers, celebrities, artists, socialites and fashionistas that believed Anna was "one of the major European heiresses" and that Hunter was the next Mark Zuckerberg.
This book is based on over a year's worth of intensive, previously unpublished reporting that was not included in the original article and isn't in the Netflix show.
Jessica Pressler is one of the most famous magazine writers working today. The movie Hustlers, starring Jennifer Lopez, is based on Pressler's 2015 New York Magazine article "The Hustlers at Scores" and featured Julia Stiles playing Pressler.
