Miss D and Me is a story of two powerful women, one by the end of her life and the other at the beginning. As Bette Davis aged, she wanted an associate, but she found something more than that in Kathryn: a devoted and loving buddy, a co-conspirator in her jokes and schemes, and a competent associate whom she trained to never miss a information. But Miss D had rigid rules for Kathryn about everything from how to consume a salad to how to wear her hair...even the spelling of Kathryn's name was improved (adding the "y") per Miss D's submission. Throughout their time mutually, both grew extremely close, and Kathryn had a front-row seats to the larger-than-life Davis's job renaissance in her old age, as well as to the humiliating general public betrayal that almost killed Miss D. The frame of the storyline is a four-day highway trip Kathryn and Davis required from Biarritz to Paris, during which they disentangled their ferocious dependency. Miss D and Me is a windows in to the world of the initial and formidable Bette Davis, told by the person who perhaps recognized her best of all.
