Truman Capote's infamous Black and White Ball at New York’s Plaza Hotel on November 28th 1966. The masked ball which was labeled the "party of the century", was thrown in the honor of his dear friend Katharine Graham, whose husband died by suicide in 1961, leaving her to run the family media empire. The guest list contained 540 of his closest friends from affluent families, royalty, fashion designers, models, actors, writers, musicians and his famous "Swans".

I know that like any very popular story there are all kinds of claims and counter-claims about whether X inspired Y part of Jaws, but did Peter Benchley ever actually say that Matt Hooper was based on Peter Gimbel or is it just assumed because the book DID take inspiration from Blue Water, White Death and the movie even used the same underwater camerapeople and the oceanographer randomly being an heir to a fortune would be a strange plot element otherwise?
