A week of celebrations
What a way to end the year!
One day after celebrating
Catholic school education at the
Futures in Education concert at
Lincoln Center, I got to enjoy
dinner at former Mayor Michael
Bloomberg’s gracious, art-filled
home.
If that wasn’t enough, I also
got to enjoy cocktails at Gracie
Mansion with
current Mayor
Bill de Blasio
at his annual
media holiday
gathering.
Then
I headed
out east to
Long Island
for an event
in support the incoming
Nassau
C o u n t y
E x e c u t i v e
Laura Curran!
Whew! The
wh i r lwi n d
holiday week
was full of
what I love
about being
in the news
bu s i n e s s :
meeting fascinating
people.
T h e n ,
during the
holiday weekend,
I got to
experience
a wonderful
movie: “The Greatest Showman,”
the story about P.T. Barnum. It’s
Hugh Jackman at his best, with
amazing music, costumes, dancing
and plenty of circus history.
With my grandchildren, I also
saw “Coco,” a movie with a message:
“Our love for each other
will live on forever.” Don’t miss
it; even if you don’t have kids,
it’s genius!
These movies are certainly not
to be missed!
Here are some photos from the
week. I wish all of you a Happy
New Year!
