Gloria
Laura Vanderbilt (born February 20, 1924) is an
American artist, author, actress, fashion
designer, heiress, and socialite.
During the 1930s she was the subject of a high-profile child custody trial in
which her mother, Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt, and her paternal
aunt, Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, each sought
custody of her and control over her trust fund. Called the "trial of the century" by the press,
the court proceedings were the subject of wide and sensational press coverage
due to the wealth and prominence of the involved parties, and the scandalous
evidence presented to support Whitney's claim that Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt was
an unfit parent. As an adult in the 1970s, Vanderbilt became known in
connection with a line of fashions, perfumes, and household goods bearing her
name. She was particularly noted as an early developer of designer blue jeans. She is a
member of the Vanderbilt family of New York and the mother of
CNN television anchor Anderson
Cooper.
