All About Inventing Anna and the Myth and Intrigue of Anna Delvey: A Roundup of News Articles Feb 11-13
Since the release of Inventing Anna on Netflix, the passion and popularity for Anna Delvey has exploded on the internet for the first time since Jessica Pressler's The Cut article and Rachel DeLouche Williams's Vanity Fair story both first introduced us to Anna Sorokin in May 2018. As the editor and "scam librarian" of the Anna Delvey Foundation blog, I created an index of new stories so you don't have to. Here are some topics to explore while you watch and pause to read more about the con artist thriller (comedy?). Did I miss anything good? Email me.
