==In popular culture== * Edith Wharton was honored on a U.S. postage stamp issued on September 5, 1980.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://postalmuseum.si.edu/object/npm_1999.2004.142 | title=15c Edith Wharton single }}</ref> * In ''[[The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles]]'', Edith Wharton ([[Clare Higgins (actress)|Clare Higgins]]) travels across [[North Africa]] with [[Indiana Jones (character)|Indiana Jones]] in Chapter 16, ''Tales of Innocence''. * Edith Wharton is mentioned in the HBO television series ''[[Entourage (U.S. TV series)|Entourage]]'' in the 2007 third season's 13th episode: Vince is handed a screenplay for Wharton's ''[[The Glimpses of the Moon (Wharton novel)|The Glimpses of the Moon]]'' by Amanda, his new agent, for a film to be directed by [[Sam Mendes]]. In the same episode, period films of Wharton's work are lampooned by agent [[Ari Gold (Entourage)|Ari Gold]], who says that all her stories are "about a guy who likes a girl, but he can't have sex with her for five years, because those were the times!" [[Carla Gugino]], who plays Amanda, was the protagonist of the BBC-PBS adaptation of ''[[The Buccaneers]]'' (1995), one of her early jobs. *[[Gilmore Girls]] makes various witty references to Wharton throughout the series. In season 1, episode 6 called "Rory's Birthday Parties", Lorelei jokingly says, "Edith Wharton would be proud", referring to Emily's extravagant birthday party for Rory. In [[Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life]] the tradition continues as Lorelei quips Emily with a Wharton mention in the first episode. * In a 2009 episode of ''[[Gossip Girl]]'' called "The Age of Dissonance", characters put on a production of a play version of ''[[The Age of Innocence]]'' and find their personal lives mirroring the play. * "Edith Wharton's Journey" is a radio adaptation, for the NPR series ''[[Radio Tales]]'', of the short story "A Journey" from Edith Wharton's collection ''The Greater Inclination''. * The American singer and songwriter [[Suzanne Vega]] paid homage to Edith Wharton in her song "Edith Wharton's Figurines" on her 2007 studio album ''[[Beauty & Crime]]''. *In ''[[Dawson's Creek]]'', Pacey reads and takes a verbal quiz on ''[[Ethan Frome]]''. *[[The Magnetic Fields]] have a song which summarises the plot of ''[[Ethan Frome]]''.
