"I’ll Build a Stairway to Paradise: A Life of Bunny Mellon" with Mac Griswold

Mac Griswold, a journalist and acclaimed cultural landscape historian, has been writing about gardens since 1987, producing books and articles that explore the secrets of landscapes and gardens. “Gardens never lie,” she says, “they always tell you something about their makers and their times.” Rooted in Bunny Mellon’s gardens and her collections of garden books and works of art, Griswold’s biography offers an unparalleled portrait of a complex and private person whom Mac knew as a friend.
