This drama laced with wit is set in Hollywood and Washington and follows the infamous 1950 Senate race that first brought entertainment and politics together. That’s when a young Richard Nixon falsely accused his opponent, the beautiful, liberal congresswoman, wife of Melvyn Douglas, and ex-Broadway star, Helen Gahagan Douglas, of being a Communist.

Nixon earned the name “Tricky Dick,” Helen was dubbed the “Pink Lady.” He ascended to the Presidency… until Watergate. She was forgotten… until now. Hubris has a tragic cost for both flawed heroine and complicated villain. And politicians’ dirty tricks continue to cost us all.
