It's not who you know, it's Whom You Know and we know Marilyn White. She does a great job running the show at SOFA and ages ago when we had polls she was voted #1 worldwide in PR, which is no accident. Here she is with Gregory Speck and Jean Shafiroff. You know you're attending an amazing event if you see Jean there! Jean is one of our favorites!
We were delighted to see our friends Donald and Barbara Tober there!
Barbara and Peachy are extremely excited for May 9th.
You know what May 9th is!
We have told you many times as it will be a fantastic event:
The wine was lovely:
Lots of interesting art to see; we feature the art first and a photo of the gallery that displays it second:
We looked for the croc here but he wasn't to be found:
