Grace Kelly had a fairy-tale life, leaving a childhood in Philadelphia to become an iconic Hollywood actress and later the Princess of Monaco. In film, Kelly is remembered for her appearances in Rear Window, Dial M for Murder, and her Academy Award-winning role in The Country Girl. In the biography "High Society," Grace Kelly's close friend Donald Spoto draws from his personal interviews with the star to share details about Kelly's life, her impact on Hollywood, and her years as a princess.
