Robert M. Morgenthau and his wife Lucinda Franks arrive at the Vanity Fair Party for the 5th annual Tribeca Film Festival in lower Manhattan on April 26, 2006. Morganthau served as Manhattan`s District Attorney for nearly 35 years. He died on July 21, 2019, just 10 days shy of his 100th birthday. Lucinda Franks was a renowned writer, journalist, author, and screenwriter. She was widely published in The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, Talk, and The New Yorker, and was a trailblazing journalist and foreign correspondent with UPI. She married Morgenthau in 1977 at the age of 30 when he, a widower, was nearly twice her age. She was a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, alerting the public to the significant dangers of Red Dye Number 2, a much-used food coloring that was linked to cancer. She was among the first to debunk the belief that alcoholism was caused by a lack of willpower. She pointed out the strong biochemical causes of alcoholism. Her Pulitzer was for an in-depth examination of the radical Weather Underground group of the late 1960s and 70s. One of her books, `My Father`s Secret War: A Memoir` traced her father`s hair-raising spy activities behind enemy lines during World War Two. Franks wrote a book entitled `Timeless: Love, Morgenthau, and Me` in 2014 about her unlikely, remarkable, and long, happy marriage. Lucinda Franks died on May 5, 2021 in Hopewell Junction, New York, from cancer, at the age of 74.
