About All That Glittered Was Not Told: A Beverly Hills
Best Selling Author, Michael Gross, touched briefly on this amazing story in his recently published novel, Unreal Estate. He mentioned that Diane Hunt Stockmar was the illigitimate daughter of Dolly Green! Dolly was the daughter of Burton Green, one of the majority founders of glamorous, Beverly HIlls. All that Glittered Was Not Told, is the 'in depth' reveal narrated by Diane Hunt Stockmar, the illigitimate grandaughter of this Beverly Hills founder, Burton Green. Stockmar exposes this never before hidden tale. All that Glittered Was Not Told is the amazing saga of a little girl given away at two years of age to adoptive parents who by all rights should have held the child's amazing parentage a secret. However, the mother, Dolly Wellborn Green, insisted that she return to that child's life as her 'Godmother' when Diane was six years old. Dolly insisted that as her 'Godmother' she intended to help mentor her 'darlings' life. Dolly Green was selfishly unable to keep the child to raise as her own, but in Dolly's own words, she needed, "To have her cake and eat it too!" So Dolly contrived an elaborate charade to fool the father of her 'adopted out' child into thinking that Dolly was just a doting friend, not the mother. This allowed Dolly in later years, to come back into her illegitimate daughters life as her loving 'Godmother'. Noted authoress, Diane Hunt Stockmar was that child and now as an adult is relating this riveting expose! She takes the reader from the early days of her childhood in Beverly Hills with her adored 'Mommy', at 613 Mountain Drive. Then Stockmar moves through the adoptive process, her adjustment to a new home and the rest of her life with the glamorous, Dorothy Wellborn Green. Dolly was certainly the most press worthy of Burton's daughters. She kept company with a bevy of glamorous Hollywood stars. As well as in later years, she was a true 'Press Darling', when she became so involved with her flamboyant racehorse career and that extremely high profile, monied set. As the title implies, All That Glittered Was Not Told, reveals in great depth the secrets hidden from everyone but the most privileged players, those who were allowed access to these formerly hidden and very clandestine facts. This book is riveting, amazing, filled with tales of the golden era of Hollywood romance and money that was so available in the early days. Where if in addition, you did not like how things were going in your life, money had a wonderful way of fixing 'little mistakes'. Stockmar gives real insight to the 'Glam' of the older days of the very rich and famous of Beverly Hills and Hollywood. She grew up going to Westlake School for Girls where many celebrity children attended. This is a 'cannot put down read'!
