About this episode

The episode explores Sharon Tate's impact on American culture and her legacy as a symbol of beauty and tragedy.

In my first attempt at an all-video podcast, I reprise my season-one episode on Sharon Tate. I dive into her impact on American culture, the landscape for female crime victims, and her enduring legacy as the most beautiful woman who ever lived. I discuss the details of her most iconic role as Jennifer North in The Valley of the Dolls and all her spectacular looks on and off screen—including her mini taffeta wedding dress. In many ways, there would not be a podcast without Sharon Tate, so I thought she would be the best person to usher in the video version. As always, thank you for tuning into Window Dressing!
