BORN 1899 • DIED—
Erica Carlyle was the sole heir to the Carlyle fortune since the Kenyan courts declared her brother Rogerdead and the New York state courts concurred. She then managed the family interests in transportation, munitions, and international trade, proving far more competent than her wastrel brother had been.
A single woman, Miss Carlyle was often the subject of speculation in society pages. In practice, she was largely uninterested in romantic attachments, as they proved a distraction from her work. Despite this, she attended a near-constant stream of galas, dinners, and cocktail parties in order to maintain her business contacts. Whether out on business or attending a social function, Miss Carlyle was usually accompanied by her bodyguard, Joe Corey. She was quick to call upon his talents for dissuasion to deal with people who irritated her.
