Turnbull has a small personal connection due to the fact that in 1932-33 Fitzgerald and his daughter Scottie stayed at a rented house on the La Paix estate of Turnbull's parents near Baltimore, Maryland where Zelda Fitzgerald was undergoing treatment for her recurring mental health issues. This adds the benefit of some warm-hearted anecdotes of the games that Fitzgerald organized for Scottie and the 3 Turnbull children. Fitzgerald also seems to have taken 11-year old Andrew under a fatherly wing taking him to football games and introducing him to boxing.
Any Fitzgerald biography will be read with great deal of sadness but it is the warm family moments like those in the company of the Turnbulls and the stories of the final possible turnaround under Sheilah Graham's care in Hollywood that still help to lift the spirit.
