[edit] Norman Mailer material
Mallory had a ten-year affair with Norman Mailer. Waiting until after Mailer's death in November 2007, she sold seven boxes of documents and photographs to Harvard University. They contain extracts of her letters, books and journals.[1] There are accounts of two sex scenes based on their love life, one extended to 50 pages written as a bet with Mailer.
The papers were exchanged for an undisclosed amount, but Mailer, who died at 84, had sold his archives to the University of Texas for $US2.5 million ($2.6 million).[1]
[edit] Personal life
As well as her affair with Mailer, who was 20 years older, Mallory also dated Warren Beatty, Peter Sellers, Richard Gere and Rod Stewart. She was once engaged to Claude Picasso,[1] the son of Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot.
