Synopsis: When Adrienne Rubin enters into the jewelry business in 1970s Los Angeles, she is a maverick in a world dominated by men. She soon meets a young hotshot salesman who doesn&’t seem to struggle at all, and when he asks her to be his partner, she is excited to join him. She doesn&’t know him well, but she does know his father, and she believes he is as trustworthy as the day is long . . . Diamonds and Scoundrels shows us how a woman in a man&’s world, with tenacity and sheer determination, can earn respect and obtain a true sense of accomplishment. Following Rubin&’s experiences in the jewelry industry through the &’70s, &’80s, and &’90s—with the ups and downs, good guys and bad—this is a tale of personal growth, of how to overcome challenges with courage and resilience. It&’s a story for the woman today who, in addition to a rich family life, seeks a self-realized, fulfilling path toward a life well lived.
