Megan Calvet Draper
The Shimmering Star of Madison Avenue
I danced in the spotlight so he wouldn’t see me fade.
I came to New York with dreams bigger than a kitchen in Rye or a corner office. I saw in Don a man who wanted something new—and for a while, I believed I was that something. I played the part of the glamorous wife, the devoted stepmother, the muse. But I was more than a performance in someone else’s story. I fought to be seen. I still do.
What I'm Into: California sunsets, stage lights, Sally’s teenage eye-rolls, French perfume, my own reflection
