You'll never believe me : before Anna Delvey, before the Tinder Swindler, there was 'Hipster Grifter' Kari Ferrell
Ferrell, Kari2025
Books
Before Anna Delvey, before the Tinder Swindler, there was Kari Ferrell. Adopted at a young age by a Mormon family in Utah, Kari struggled with questions of self-worth and identity as one of the few Asian Americans in her insulated community, leading her to run with the 'bad crowd' in an effort to fit in. Soon, she graduated from petty crimes to more serious grifts, stealing money from unsuspecting targets and eventually hitting Utah's Most Wanted List. Desperate for a fresh start, she moves to New York City, slips into the indie-sleaze scene where she games her way to a job at Vice Magazine, picks up men and their wallets at clandestine bars, and becomes known as the 'Hipster Grifter', a moniker that she would never escape. In turns rollicking and irreverent, warm and compassionate, Kari's is a heartfelt memoir of redemption and reconciliation.
