BIOGRAPHY

Daughter of Ralph Hardeson and Cora Mae Carrow, owners of Hardeson Steel and Industry. Born April 25, 1886. Parents died in a plane crash in Egypt in 1901 when Emma was just 16. Emma survived, and took over limited management of Hardeson Steel. Made her first independent million by age 20. Ran the corporation until 1914, when she married John Knight. Knight served as an airmen during the war and was killed in action in June 1918. Emma, now solidly buffered by an ocean of cash and a respectable widowhood, has been living in a Boston marriage with Eve Stoy since. Brazenly, cheerfully unconventional, Knight wears men's clothing, smokes enormous Cuban cigars and drinks whiskey in El Dorado, a club she owns and operates for the benefit of other well-to-do New York women.
