Jack Dunphy: The Lover of Truman Capote
Jack Dunphy (1914-1992) was Truman Capote's partner for 35 years. Living together in Manhattan, Sicily and then apart in Long Island, New York, Dunphy was the solitary shy foil to Capote. Once a ballet dancer, Dunphy published critically acclaimed novels such as John Fury and First Wine. Outshone by Capote in the literary world, Dunphy published a remembrance of Capote in 1987. Dunphy's first wife Joan McCracken (1917-1961) remained in their orbit for years. Dunphy and Capote's ashes were scattered together in New York in 1992.
