Origin
Vesper Fairchild first came to prominence as a night-time radio talk show host in Gotham City.  She first met Bruce Wayne (Batman) as a guest on her show - which resulted in a more personal relationship.

After a massive earthquake stuck Gotham City and it was declared a "No Man's Land" by the federal government, Fairchild left the city to start a career as a journalist.  When she returned to the revitalized city she once again continued a romantic relationship with Wayne.

Because Fairchild was investigating Wayne's alter-ego Batman, he decided to sever the relationship to avoid his secrets from being revealed.  Soon after their relationship was dissolved Fairchild was murdered by the assassin David Cain at Wayne's mansion in a ploy by Lex Luthor to destroy his business rival by framing him for murder.
