"A first-rate look at one of the world's greatest and most misunderstood dynasties" (Christopher Andersen, #1 New York Times bestselling author)the Getty familyperfect for fans of Succession and House of Gucci.
Oil magnate J. Paul Getty, once the richest man in the world, is the patriarch of an extraordinary cast of sons, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. While some have been brought low by mental illness, drug addiction, and one of the most sensational kidnapping cases of the 20th century, many of Getty's heirs have achieved great success. In addition to Mark Getty, a cofounder of Getty Images, and Anne G. Earhart, an award-winning environmentalist, others have made significant marks in a variety of fields, from music and viniculture to politics and LGBTQ rights.
Now, across four continents, a new generation of lively, unique, and even outrageous Gettys is emergingand not coasting on the dynasty's still-immense wealth. August Getty designs extravagant gowns worn by Katy Perry, Cher, and other stars; his sibling, Natsa fellow LGBTQ rights activist who announced his gender transition following his wedding to transgender icon Gigi Gorgeousproduces a line of exclusive streetwear. Their fascinating cousins include Balthazar, a multi-hyphenate actor-director-DJ-designer; and Isabel, a singer-songwriter and MBA candidate. A far-flung yet surprisingly close-knit group, the ascendant Gettys are bringing this iconic family onto the global stage in the 21st century.

Paul Getty's diaries and love letters, and fresh interviews with family members and friends, Growing Up Getty offers a "must-read" (Laurence Leamer, New York Times bestselling author) and revealing look into the benefits and burdens of being part of today's world of the ultra-wealthy.
