The Hamptons Lizzie Built Lizzie Grubman and her father are as responsible as anyone for the Hamptons' maelstrom of wealth and celebrity. With one press of the accelerator, Lizzie brought that world into crisis.

Who's Who: Friends & Enemies The skinny on Grubman's lawyers, friends, and enemies. (July 16, 2001 )

Sympathy for the Devil "I feel so sorry for her. She's only 30 years old, and her life is over." --Alec Baldwin "Pity Miss Grubman. She is a victim of our culture if ever there was one. How was she to know that it was impermissible to run over white trash?" --Michael Kelly, Washington Post "At first, I wasn't sure if I wanted to sell the picture. I kind of think it's bad karma to profit on someone else's misery. ...But the truth is that I like the picture. And my rent just got raised." --Erin Patrice O'Brien, who sold her two-year-old portrait of Grubman for New York's cover story


Another Hamptons Spot to Avoid "Twice Upon a Bagel in Wainscott has the best bagels in the Hamptons, the best egg salad, and the best cinnamon roll in America. The bagels are as good as H&H, if not better." (An August, 1999 bagel endorsement from La Grubman )

If the Choo Fits ... Among the sideshows in the Lizzie Grubman frenzy: yet another tiff between the city’s bickering tabloids. The issue? In its zeal to come up with the ultimate bit of "color" for the story, did the someone fabricate a delicious detail? On June 9, the New York Post reported that human SUV obstacle Sarah Thorne, a fashion trouper to the last, "asked a friend to take off her expensive Jimmy Choo shoes so medics wouldn't ruin them" even as she lay prostrate in an ambulance. By last Thursday, however, Rush and Molloy of the rival Daily News were reporting that Thorne was not even wearing Choos. In fact, they theorized, a PR rival of Grubman’s may have seized the event as an opportunity for product placement. The Post’s Chris Wilson, who got the detail straight from the shoe savior's mouth, had two words for the News columnists: "Sour grapes." — Christina Nunez
