Anna Delvey is the subject of the new Netflix series Inventing Anna
Introduction to Anna
The new docuseries of Netflix invents Anna taking Anna Delvey as the subject. Delvey infiltrated elite circles in New York City from 2013 to 2017. For ten months, it claimed that she was expecting the inheritance of US$67 million and then scammed contacts out of US$275,000 million.
Each episode of Anna begins with a disclaimer: “This whole story is completely true. Except for all the parts that are made up.”, giving warning to its viewers that fact-checking Shonda Rhimes’ latest show for the streamer is not going to be easy. Still, the people who have heard of Anna Delvey already know that.
The ‘Anna Delvey Foundation’
The New Magazine broke the internet with the story of the journalist, Jessica Pressler. It happened in the year 2018. This story is about a German heiress. She was accused of stealing money from banks, her friends, and financial institutions between 2013 and 2017. She did that because she wanted to launch a member’s only club called the Anna Delvey Foundation. A German-raised scam queen, born in Russia, Sorokin, fooled New York’s super-rich person to bow down to her to the tune of $275,000.
Inspiration behind Anna
The show follows journalist Vivian, a person loosely primarily based totally on Pressler and performed by Veep’s Anna Chlumsky, who investigates Anna’s complex tale. Pressler’s extensive reporting is the inspiration behind the invention of Anna. The drama tries to tell Sorokin’s tale. (Netflix reportedly paid Sorokin $320,000 to evolve her existence right into a TV display, which she said Insider she doesn’t plan to watch.)
