    162: Youth of Excess

    Zelda Fitzgerald was married to the author F. Scott Fitzgerald, but was also a creative in her own right as a published author, dancer, and artist. Zelda is also one of the most famous "crazy" people, bouncing from one institution to another for the last twenty years of her life. Despite the fame of she and her husband, Zelda was exposed to the questionable, sometimes violent, treatments of the day, all of which seemed to have little effect.
