Clark Calloway, a young New England born decorator works in New York City for the legendary interior design firm Deidre Dawn & Company, alongside the aging and cantankerous blueblood Deidre and widower, Paul Hedges, chief design associate.  Clark enters the world of glamour as the firm’s clients number the ‘who’s who’ in the theatre, film, hotel, sports, and business worlds.  Clark’s talents include not only design and decorating, but also attracting the amorous attention of the magical movie star ‘goddess,’ Pamela Raven, and those of her niece, the rebellious, anti-establishment and orphaned Holly Raven.

When Clark becomes involved with Maria Pucci, a young ‘on-the-way-up’ starlet, and with Allen Friedberg, head honcho at Metropolis Pictures in Hollywood, sparks and drapery fabrics fly, amidst a background set in the early 1970’s, when the ‘pot and pot’ cultures were just beginning.
