Paris Singer

Paris Eugene Singer was an early resident of Palm Beach, Florida. He was 22nd of the 24 children of inventor and industrialist Isaac Singer of Singer Sewing Machine Company fame, from whom he inherited money; he has been described as a "man of luxury". Born in Paris, he married Cecilia Henrietta Augusta ("Lillie") Graham, who bore him five children. He had a tempestuous romance with famous dancer Isadora Duncan, whose career he helped, and with whom he had another son, Patrick. Singer Island, Florida, is named for him.
