"Ruth Franklin writes about the life and career of Elsie de Wolfe, the inventor of the profession of interior decorating, on the occasion of the rerelease of her classic book “The House in Good Taste.” This Profile of de Wolfe, from 1938, was written by Janet Flanner, who wrote The New Yorker’s Letter from Paris from 1925 to 1974."
