The Indiscretions of a Lady of Wit and Opinion'.
Ilka Chase was a Broadway actress, radio host, movie actress and above all a society gal. Her mother was an editor of Vogue magazine, and in Past Imperfect - The Indiscretions of a Lady of Wit and Wisdom she details her youth in European boarding schools, ski trips to Biarritz, and tours of Italy. In her thirties she played in New York reviews and originated the role of Sheila in Claire Booth Luce's hit play The Women in 1938. Moving on to Hollywood, her roles in pictures were usually as the worldly sophisticate; for me her best role is of Lisa Vale in Now, Voyager.
