The young NYC heiress and socialite was finally engaged to marry well and destined for a life of decorum on the Times' society page. But unfortunately, she was ten weeks pregnant, her fiancé wasn't the father, and the worst of it was that the baby might strongly resemble a previous flame. There were no options. She publicly broke her engagement and disappeared.
Now, two weeks later, in early November 1955, Barbara was with her father in the international departure terminal of Idlewild airport. He handed her a booklet of traveler's checks and a one-way ticket. She had six weeks to submit a binding proposal to her father to remain part of the family, but never again return home.
