One of my favorite days of the year is the pre conference tour that Equilar hold for their clients. I get to travel to an interesting city and see something different. This year we went to Wrigley Field and got a behind the scenes tour. It was really really hot, but still totally fascinating and a great photo opportunity.

The Chihuly show at the New York Botanical Gardens is well worth seeing at night, and last night they hosted an evening of Opera with Glimerglass so after the performance I took a stroll through the new exhibit.

City Harvest are just good people, my favorite client and an organization I'm proud to work for. Last night was their big spring party at Cipriani's in midtown New York City.

Franklin Templeton annual conference at the Essex House Hotel
Last night was the National Geographic Further evening at Jazz at Lincoln Center
I would say that generally my policy was to politely refuse a "celebrity" photo opportunity. Then years ago Bill Clinton asked if I wanted a photo and I politely declined and immediately felt like a rude idiot. How could I refuse the opportunity with Malala Yousafzai. I hope my daughter has even an ounce of her drive
