2013-10-16

How does a poor, single, African-American mother from segregated 1950s America wind up as one of the worlds most notorious jewel thieves?

Stylish recreations, an extensive archive and candid interviews reveal how Payne managed to jet-set her way into any Cartier or Tiffanys from Monte Carlo to Japan and walk out with small fortunes.
