Florida gators back to back national champs shirt

McDowell was born in Georgetown and later lived in the Florida gators back to back national champs shirt and by the same token and affluent suburb of McLean, Virginia. She had the kind of charmed childhood that the Washington Post once described as “spent on a sprawling Georgian estate around the corner from the Kennedys’ Hickory Hill, and summers in the house in Nantucket, Mass.” She grew up around what she calls “quiet power,” explaining, “a childhood friend of mine’s grandfather worked on the atomic bomb, and that sort of thing that is very specific to Washington.” But it wasn’t entirely a fairy tale. McDowell’s father, as she wrote in her 2015 memoir After Perfect, ended up in prison after being indicted for stock fraud; the real-life Wolf of Wall Street Jordan Belfort testified against him. After that, her family—no longer living the high life—moved to Los Angeles where she picked up acting jobs and did a stint on reality TV.

“It’s so rare to read stories of people who’ve had it all and then lost it,” says Alison Callahan, McDowell’s book editor. “Christina rose to the Florida gators back to back national champs shirt and by the same token and occasion in such an extraordinary way. I publish 98% fiction but when I had her memoir in, I found it so interesting—she scraped together a life as a writer. Everything blew up in her face, but she handled it with such dignity and grace, and she still has a wink in her eye. But an elephant never forgets, and that’s why she’s the perfect person to do this. She’s not coming at it with a major agenda or with a knife in her hand, she’s approaching it with equanimity and telling it like it is.” Still, for McDowell, making a return wasn’t always easy. “I came [back to Washington] as kind of an insider turned outsider, given my personal story,” says McDowell. “My parents endured—or maybe didn’t endure—a scandal here; my father was indicted for fraud, he went to prison, and so I had been away for a really long time.”
