F. Scott Fitzgerald: male, 41, brilliant but experiencing writer's block, the tortured sophisticate, known for hitting the bottle, sexy and masculine but for the opposite reasons as Ernest Hemingway.
Ernest Hemingway: male, 38 but with a younger and very viral energy, powerful, the rugged archetype of masculinity, sporting a thick black mustache, drinks whiskey and uses off-color language.
Miss Eve Montaigne: female, 25-30, strong, ahead of her time, assistant to Louis B. Mayer, charged with keeping Fitzgerald on track writing a screenplay, has a strong period look but with a modern sensibility, any ethnicity.
The Complete History of America (abridged):

Joanne Johnson: female, 31, the perfect wife who seemingly has it all, blonde, put together, type A personality, a headband coordinated with every outfit she owns, has perfectly labeled tupperware in her kitchen cabinets, and nothing in her purse is out of place.
Babette Bellini: female, 30, Joanne's best friend/frenemy, married to Royce Bellini and is desperately trying to hold onto her marriage, sometimes misuses words, speaks off the cuff, and can get a little wild, has big hair and big makeup.
Lulu Delecante: female, mid-40's, the mysterious wife with a mysterious sort of English accent. She is a Sultana because she was married to a Sultan, and despite their divorce she still uses the title.
Beezus Horowitz: female, early 50's, the oldest of the wives, trying to hold onto her youth, and the wealthiest. Even though she doesn't like it, she acts as the matriarch of the group.
Penny Quinoa St. Simone: female, 30, cute and spirited, this wife is a follower, marrried to Theodore St. Simone, quick-witted, a pleaser, and sells a 10 day cleanse called Babylicious.
