Lana Marks is the CEO of her own company and she designs handbags using reptile skin—lizard, alligator and crocodile. Her bags sell for $1,000 on up to ungodly sums. You don’t even want to know what people pay just to own one of her handbags. I used to think Gucci was expensive. She is headquartered in
In her PB office she used to have photos that adorned her walls with Princess Diana before she was the "late" Princess. Probably still does. She loved to let you know of this “connection.” Lana Marks was hell on wheels to work for. Her staff then was scared to death of her. She micromanaged everything, even down to insisting that you sign out for paperclips.
She never could keep an executive assistant back in those days and she wondered why, never understanding that perhaps she just could not relate to anyone but the rich or famous and never wanting to. She mentioned to me that she thought some of her "help" was stealing from her. I walked out after one day on the job and told her not to even pay me for that one day of work. That was probably one of the few times she ever listened.
Now Lana is being sued in Federal Court. Read about the gal who definitely made it off the hides of helpless animals, two legged as well as four. She didn't get close enough to this gator!
Are these reptiles endangered?
