Alan Dershowitz’s daughter has a burgeoning career creating crossword puzzles

Trust Alan Dershowitz to spawn the most esoteric nepo baby tale.

Page Six hears that the reliably surprising legal eagle’s daughter has used her leg-up in life to launch… a burgeoning career as a crossword setter.

Apparently Ella Dershowitz has placed her puzzles in a number of famous pages, including the LA Times and the Wall Street Journal, and most recently set this week’s New York Times’ Thursday puzzle (the day that many cruciverbalists consider to be the most challenging of the weekly cycle).

While some scions have cashed in their parents’ cache to bag roles in glitzy Hollywood flicks or studio time with top producers, on this occasion Ella contented herself with the opportunity of authoring a tricky little grid that (spoiler alert) transposed the letters “n” and “e” from one set of words into another.

Meanwhile, an amusing aside to the lexiconic yarn is that her dad — who shot to fame as an attorney for O.J. Simpson and Claus Von Bulow and most recently earned the ire of the liberal elite by representing Donald Trump — is a major booster of the relaunched New York Sun, whose entire mission appears to be to eviscerate the allegedly appalling New York Times.

A typical recent press release read, “Like you, we’ve screamed and shouted about the injustice of the Times claiming to be America’s ‘Paper of Record.’ But now it’s time to do something. It’s time to join the movement to rebuild a better newspaper.”

Dersh chimed in in another: “In today’s media landscape there are far too many publications that get things wrong. Many are more concerned with the political implications of a story than the basic facts. The New York Sun is different. It’s a paper that places principle over politics and people over party.”

Ella is also an actress who’s preparing to appear in a play about left wing heroine Hannah Arendt.

She declined to comment and Dersh didn’t get back to us.
