Phoenix Payne - Backstage

Monette McLin has “voiced” a story brimming with humor, insight, and sparkle, exploring the “best known – little known” jewel thief in American history. Using an easy smile, sleight of hand, and polite conversation, Doris Marie Payne made a decades long career – frustrating law enforcement and jewelry merchants alike. So sweet, so unassuming, and so utterly fearless, Doris stole from some of the top jewelry vendors across the globe – and she did it without weapons, injuries, or fatalities. Doris is simply the most successful solo female jewel thief the world has ever seen. Her favorite gem? Diamonds, of course.
