Words can't express how devastated to hear of her passing. Hiding My Candy is definitely one of my favorite autobiography. Lords know she was a hoot in MITGOFGAE. Rest in paradise The Lady Chablis..

If you have read her autobio, I am sure Chablis is having a kickass reunion with Joan McCoy.

I read Hiding My Candy many years ago and it was fabulous, just like The Lady herself. So sad she's gone :(

Im in my 20s grew up in Quincy and Tallahassee knowing her as simply Knox. Very sweet person.

What a fabulous lady! Has anyone read her autobiography “hiding my candy”? I just recently watched the midnight in the garden of good and evil and I’m in love with this woman!
