Casey Johnson

Sale Trotter Case "Casey" Johnson (September 24, 1979 – January 2, 2010) was an American heiress, socialite and celebutante, as well as an occasional actress, model and author. She was one of the great-great-granddaughters of Robert Wood Johnson I (co-founder of Johnson & Johnson).
Johnson was born in Florida.[1] Her father was Robert Wood Johnson IV, New York Jets owner and multimillionaire with a estimated net worth of around $900 million USD, and her mother was Nancy Sale Frey, a socialite and former model. She was also niece of Jamie Johnson who directed the documentary Born Rich.[2] Johnson was raised in Manhattan and lived in a triplex penthouse apartment at 834 Fifth Avenue (in which her father was a member of the board) and attended the exclusive Chapin School, and the Marymount School, and Dwight School after being asked to leave. She later enrolled in Brown University for one semester.[1]

As a child, Johnson was diagnosed with diabetes.[3] She and her father were both involved with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, working to find a cure for the disease.[4] During her teens in the late 90s Johnson received attention from the local Manhattan media and paparazzi as a New York party girl and socialite celebutante who ran in the same circles as fellow heiresses Paris Hilton and Amanda Hearst.
