In his new book, CNN anchor and "60 Minutes" correspondent Anderson Cooper tells the story of the Vanderbilt family dynasty - from his great-great-great-grandfather, Cornelius "Commodore" Vanderbilt, once the richest man in America who built his fortune through steamships and railroads, to his mother, socialite Gloria Vanderbilt. Cooper talks with correspondent Mo Rocca about how the wealth and privilege in his family tree marked succeeding generations.

As a young lady my sister and I wanted Gloria Vanderbilt jeans…my mom had a good job but we really had NO money…My sister and I each got a pair in 77 or 78, they were $60 dollars per pair! A crap load of money in those days…they lasted for ever, great jeans and fit well. Thanks Gloria.

The Vanderbilt family is still doing pretty well in Asheville, N.C. thanks to the citizens of Asheville who help save the estate in the 1960's and 70's with their own money.

@sherylsmallwood-valdivia5375 3 года назад

If it's any consolation to Anderson (not that he will ever read this): I'd argue that my generation doesn't associate him with the Vanderbilt name in a negative way. Quite the contrary! If young people even know his connection, him and his mother are seen as postive outcomes. Timothy Olyphant as well. All three people talented in their own right

@tulafitzgerald5649 Год назад

My paternal Grandmother was employed by the Vanderbilts in Newport, RI. There were times when she had to travel to their other places or risk loosing her job. With four children and no other means of support she had no good options. She kept the job by farming the older boys out,the youngest boy (my Dad) was left in an home for boys and the daughter went to an aunt. Not happy time for any of them. I am happy for Anderson Cooper’s forthright interview. It seems that time, and an open, insightful, mind can challenge the weight of the past. I may need to read his book.

He's a sharp individual to have been able to recognize in his teens the importance of having a plan and working hard to execute that plan.

@victorblock3421 2 года назад

That's right. His mother managed to make her own fortune but what you wont read is that she lost it all. She was practically homeless. He's very perceptive and exploited some opportunities and made something of himself, defying the douchebaggery created by his ancestors.

@ronaldcammarata3422 3 года назад

I always knew "the Vanderbilts" were part of American history. But, as a kid growing up in Dutchess County, NY, in terms of something that I could see and touch, we had the Vanderbilt Mansion in Hyde Park, NY, that was so impressive. And yet it was described by an architectural historian as "modest" for a Vanderbilt house. Oh my!

@Laocoon283 Год назад

The real value is the acres of riverfront property that house sits on.

@arislopes1924 3 года назад

I might actually be related to him & have Vanderbilt blood, Vanderbilt had multiple jobs & a railroad across Nicaragua in the mid 1850s as well as multiple unclaimed children on that part of the world. My grandma was originally from a town he help found & turn into the first path across the Atlantic to the pacific

@eleanorjpoindexter4299 2 года назад

Anderson Cooper is gifted, remarkable, resilient BECAUSE HIS MOTHER WAS THE EXAMPLE. Unfortunately, his dad died unexpectedly and Gloria Vanderbilt kept picking up the pieces of a very troubling life of LOSS. And don't get me wrong, EVERYBODY is going to pass away, but very few people can handle the unfortunate trials that she had as a young child being kidnapped herself; her husband died young at 50; her other song committed suicide, her shrink and personal attorney STOLE her money and even though she sued and won the case, she never received the restitution due her. And so you see, even the very rich are marked with bad times. As for her jeans, some of us are working with too much to wear them. But she was CLASSY and INSPIRATIONAL. And therefore Anderson could not be any less FABULOUS! I love that platinum hair of his. Congratulations to you Anderson Cooper for a life (so far) well lived.
