My Town Our Neighborhood. Your Home.

Dana Power — “I have lived in New York City for fifteen years. I remember feeling like I was on the outside looking in and could not wait to be a part of the City. Then, as you wake up and live every day, the people you meet become familiar – from

the guy you buy your coffee from in the morning to the people passing by the sidewalk café. You suddenly realize that you have become a part of the neighborhood, part of the community. I am inspired by the excitement, the energy. I am a New Yorker.”

“I always try to make the jewelry the hero in every picture,” says photographer Robin Broadbent of the stunning gems he shot for the issue. Pinning them like butterflies made each one seem special and unique; Broadbent, whose work has appeared in Harper‘s Bazaar, Numero and The New York Times, admits that was the goal all along. ”The pieces were very sculptural, almost like works of art.”

Getting to spend time with celebrities is just another perk of the job for senior editor Lindsay Silberman, who chatted with cover stars Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as well as football star Rob Gronkowski. “He had me laughing my ass off,” reveals the Manhattan-based writer.

“He's like a little kid trapped in the body of a giant, and he has absolutely no clue how funny he is.”

“Football and lovebirds seems like an odd combination,” concedes famed lensman Bruce Weber, who photographed Rob Gronkowski and John Legend and Chrissy Teigen at his home in Florida.

The shoots included beachside dancing, a gladiator costume and even some adorable baby goats. “In this day and age, to find three people so open to adventure is very rare.”

We couldn’t agree more.

When Adrienne Gaffney asked white-collar criminals to reflect on the prison experience, what surprised her most was their positive attitude. “They were upbeat,” reveals the Marie Claire and Nylon contributor. “The time in jail gave them a chance to reflect on their life and learn new things.” Gaffney learned a few things too. “I certainly found out more about prison than I ever thought I would.”

Julie Belcove, who has written for The Financial Times and The New Yorker, had followed Malcolm Morley’s work for years, and so she relished the opportunity to sit down with the artist during his recent visit to New York City.

“He’s an incredibly fascinating man. Even into his eighties, he’s still pushing himself,” she says of Morley’s decision to forgo the artistic grid system. “He likes to break his own rules.”

BEHIND THE SCENES

A Sense of Place

1. THE RESIDENCE

2. THE NEIGHBORHOOD

3. THE RESTAURANT

There is something undeniably timeless about rising actress Eve H ewson, who stars in Cinemax’s The K nic k , a drama set in New York at the turn of the 20th century. That we shot her in Chanel only compounded the need for a classic setting, and there are few backdrops with more appeal than a prewar brownstone in one of New York City’s oldest neighborhoods. The duplex on G reenwich V illage’s Bank Street ( above) , represented by TOWN Residential, proved the perfect location for our photo shoot—because nothing quite spells glamour like a grand staircase and a wall o oor to ceiling windows.

To shoot this issue’s fashion feature, we went to—as declared by our photo editor’s cab driver—“the edge of the world,” or at least the edge of Brooklyn. Lensman Cedric Buchet’s photos from around Red H ook tell the story of a “wild night out on the town” with Swedish model Elsa H osk. In our favorite hot-off-therunway looks, she was certainly dressed for the occasion. Buchet chose two sites that represent the striking dichotomy of Red H ook: an abandoned factory that previously produced parts for the ships that dredged the Panama Canal, and a construction site for soon-to-be luxury condos.

ter reading the first ew paragraphs o “It s G reat to Be G ronk,” wherein the NF L superstar ravages a particularly hearty New York strip, you’ll be feeling either slight repulsion or mouth-watering envy. If your culinary tastes lean to the latter, you’ll want to know where to find that steak and the answer is o rbon Steak at Turnberry Isle Miami Resort. G iven the 800-plus wines on the list to choose from, it’s a place you can go and stay for a while. And believe it or not, G ronk didn’t even order the biggest piece of meat on the menu. If it’s on your bucket list to outeat a 26 5 -pound tight end, the 3 2-ounce is waiting. —FRANCES DODDS

IWC PORTUGIESER. THE LEGEND AMONG ICONS.

Portugieser Annual Calendar. Ref. 5035: It took Portugal’s ocean-going heroes centuries to become legends; IWC’s Por tugieser took just 75 years. For it is that long since the appearance of the first IWC Portugieser with a pocket watch movement marked the beginning of a new legendary era. And that revolutionary step forward is still mirrored today in the IWC-manufactured 52850 calibre. The fact that innovative new technology no longer needs an eternity to achieve legendary

status can be seen in the annual calendar, where the month, date and day can be read of f at a glance.

er father might be Bono, but Eve H ewson isn’t your typical celebrity progeny: She grew up far from H ollywood, wore a uniform to school every day and had to beg her parents for her very first Chanel bag—and she didn’t actually succeed until her 19 th birthday.

Which was fine: G rowing up, H ewson— who stars as Nurse Lucy in Steven Soderbergh’s small-screen period drama, The K nic k —preferred Converse sneakers and hoodies to anything even remotely feminine.

“I probably wasn’t the most fashionable girl, but I was a pretty cool boy,” she says. It wasn’t until she took an interest in what she calls her mother’s and sister’s “girly” clothing, in fact, that H ewson started to shed her tomboy skin. ( Of course, there’s no shame in playing dress-up in your mother’s closet if your mom is Ali H ewson, founder of environmentally conscious and perennially chic clothing line EDUN.) In the six years since she’s been in New York, where she attended NYU’s Tisch School o the rts the actress has refined her style even more, trading her hoodies and handme-downs for cropped leather jackets and the signature New Yorker look of black on black.

“When you walk around New York, you just want to wear the cool jacket with a beanie,” she says, though she still carries the Chanel bag and has, in fact, supplemented it with a second one gifted by her mother. H er work

uniform, meanwhile, includes perhaps the one item of clothing you might expect a comfortloving former tomboy to despise—except she doesn’t. “I love wearing a corset! ” she says of Lucy’s wardrobe staple. “It’s like you get strapped into that thing, and you don’t even have to try to stand up. It just holds you there.”

F ollowing her breakout role on the show— one particularly unforgettable scene had her injecting liquid cocaine into co-star Clive Owen’s penis—H ewson made the talk-show circuit, where she proceeded to charm every interviewer with her wit and beauty. These qualities also caught the attention of Chanel, where she has since become a “favorite.” At the fashion house’s presentation of the ParisSalzburg Mé tiers d’Art show this spring, K arl Lagerfeld’s first New York City showing in a decade, H ewson stood out among an audience that included Beyoncé and Julianne Moore. “There was something really tough about it, but sort of romantic,” she says of the collection, which showcased handiwork from partners like knitwear house Barrie and jeweler Desrues. “Usually you go to a fashion show and you don’t know how [ the clothes] would work every day, but I was saying to my friend, ‘ I want those pants, I want that jacket, I want to wear that.’ It was easy to incorporate into my life.”

Acting accolades, impending muse status and rock-royalty pedigree notwithstanding, she’s still just 23 and not above being impressed. “Seeing Pharrell perform, I couldn’t believe it,” she says of the Chanel show.

“I was in the front row, and all of a sudden he popped out, and it was amazing! ”

There is no greater mecca of beach chic than the French Riviera, so it seems fitting that the Côte d’Azur inspired Club Monaco’s exclusive summer collaboration with Place Nationale.

A b ov e: A look from REBECCA MINK OF F ’S athleisure line, launching this summer. R ig ht: A look from new athleisure brand ADAY.

s someone who works from home most days, I’ve been at the forefront of the athleisure movement for quite some time. So I wasn’t disappointed when fashion gave me the official go-ahead to take my favorite compression tights and running shoes from CrossF it to brunch with my in-laws to a client meeting. What’s next: Weddings and funerals?

Why not? H igh-fashion ( and high-price-tag) designer launches and collaborations—Adidas’ partnerships with Rick Owens and Raf Simons, NikeLab’s work with Sacai, and athletic lines from Theory, Stella McCartney and Cynthia Rowley, among many others—make a very good case for it. If you’re going to hand over a grand for a pair of Balmain sweatpants, you’re not actually going to sweat in them. This is what I told myself, anyway, one April afternoon when I pulled on a jersey jumpsuit with a drawstring waist and a pair of V ans to go to a christening, followed by Easter at a friend’s. Who needs an Easter dress when you have Easter leisure wear?

My husband agreed as he laced up his “good” Chuck Taylors and held up two Under Armour performance hoodies: “G ray or navy? ” he asked, before slipping on the gray beneath his blazer. It wasn’t what my mother—and, judging by the judging looks, many of the churchgoers we encountered—would call our Sunday best, nor was it any cheaper than the more formal wear we might have donned just a year ago. But hey: H igh fashion’s not for everyone.— ALYSSA GIACOBBE

are also plenty of equestrian paintings throughout the home, a tribute to H unter’s lifelong love of horses.

Yet perhaps the most extraordinary object in the house— and certainly the most valuable—is Ma g a ta ma , a sculpture designed by the late Isa og chi. t first glance it s a rather unassuming work: a comma-shaped piece of black onyx highlighted by pale green stripes across the center, less than six inches in length. It could be mistaken for a paperweight, as it sits in the middle of the living room on a coffee table not one o og chi s ne t to a bron e horse fig rine. nter refers to it as “the marble kidney,” while G laser jokes that it could easily pass for a knickknack from Mexico. Yet the sculpture was recently appraised at half a million dollars— and it comes with a surprising H ollywood pedigree.

Ma g a ta ma came into H unter and G laser’s possession thanks to a coin toss. It began with the couple’s friend, the actress Evelyn K eyes, who was best known for playing Scarlett O’H ara’s younger sister in G one W ith the W ind . K eyes was by all accounts a spirited blonde and an avid art enthusiast. In 19 4 6 , following a whirlwind courtship, K eyes married movie director John H uston, renowned for his own impressive preColumbian collection, and while honeymooning on the East Coast the newlyweds visited the New York studio of Noguchi, who gifted them the heavy, twisting sculpture.

After K eyes and H uston divorced in 19 5 0, they stayed friendly and split their entire art collection evenly. When both parties found themselves in Spain not long after the break-up, H uston was feeling sentimental about their amassed collection and proposed ipping a coin with the winner taking all the art. H uston lost the bet, and K eyes found herself the proud owner o pieces by icasso fino a ayo and a l lee as well as a massive assemblage of pre-Columbian art. ew years a ter when eyes beca e engaged to fil producer Mike Todd, she offered him the Noguchi as an engagement gift. Three weeks after that, Todd announced he’d fallen in love with Elizabeth Taylor and returned the

She went on to marry famed bandleader Artie Shaw, who would, after retiring, sell without K eyes’ consent her furs, jewels and art collection. Somehow the Noguchi escaped his notice and remained with the actress until her death in 2008, after which it was bequeathed to laser who d looked a ter eyes in her final years.

Despite the sculpture’s value and provenance, the couple doesn’t keep it under lock and key. In fact, when an appraiser recently visited to examine the piece, she found it stowed inside a thick rubber container.

“It made sense that if it fell, it would be cushioned,” G laser says with a laugh. “But she told me that only in California would someone store a Noguchi in Tupperware.”

Its modest repository notwithstanding, the value of the sculpture came as no surprise to either man, since K eyes had described it as her treasure. “Evelyn told me it’s better than gold sitting in a bank,” G laser recalls. “She would have never sold it. Its sentimental value to her was priceless.”

It s fitting then that while the piece has landed in the hands of yet another silver-screen luminary, it’s perhaps with the safest star of them all—one who walked away.

Palazzo Trudie

SHE HAS GLORIOUS HOUSES ALL OVER THE WORLD, BUT TRUDIE ST YLER FEELS MOST AT HOME ON HER 90 0 -ACRE TUSC AN ESTATE PHOTO GR A PHED BY M A R TA P I A Z Z A

O

f all the rooms in which to spend one’s time at Il Palagio, where sumptuous sitting areas and fireplace-adjacent settees seem to appear around every corner, no place beats the kitchen. F rom before the first cup of morning espresso lands on the farmhouse table until the last bits of dessert are cleared away at night, none of the rooms in this 16 th-century villa, situated among the picturesque hills of Tuscany, seem more alive.

While the buzz around the kitchen could easily be attributed to the staff—a house manager who was born on the property as well as a duo of cooks who seem intent on feeding anyone, hungry or not, who crosses their path— or the guests lounging by the fireplace, what really gives the room its energy is Il Palagio’s chatelaine, the actress, philanthropist and producer Trudie Styler. The villa comes to life when Styler—who’s often joined here by her husband, Sting, and their four children—is in residence. It’s no surprise, seeing how she brightens when talking about Il Palagio, the site of countless gatherings, family vacations and memorable moments. It was after Styler’s daughter Eliot was born in 19 9 0 in Pisa, Italy, that the family decided to set down roots in the area. F inding the perfect place, however, was no simple task.

“We took a long time to find Il Palagio; it took a lot of searching,” Styler says, warming herself by that open fireplace. “The perception of Sting is that he’s a big star—that S ig nor S ting would want a g ra nd isimo pa l a z z o—and that’s not what he’s like at all.” Sting and Styler, it seems, were after something that had more charisma than curb appeal.

The couple searched extensively for a home in Tuscany— “I’d imagined a house of our dreams, but I didn’t think it existed in real life,” Styler says—and had almost given up hope when their real estate agent informed them there was one place left to see. “I said, ‘ Let’s just forget it and go have a drink,’ ” Styler recalls, “but Sting said, ‘ Let’s do it.’ ” When they showed up at Il Palagio, which was built in the 15 00s as a hunting lodge for Italian aristocrats, Styler knew she’d found what she had been looking for. “We arrived at the house and suddenly it was like the sun came out,” she says. “It’s the closest thing to paradise that we

were going to get.”

H owever, sometimes even paradise could use an upgrade.

Since Sting and Styler purchased Il Palagio in 19 9 7, the house, the 9 00-acre grounds and the three guesthouses have been extensively renovated, and while there’s no lack of rustic charm on the property, there’s also no modern convenience that the estate does without. Upscale improvements were necessary since, beyond being just another exquisite hideaway for a world-famous family and its glittering parade of weekend guests, Il Palagio does something few other grand homes do: It earns a living.

In addition to producing a portion of the food prepared by the kitchen, the grounds at Il Palagio are home to grapes, olive groves and a healthy population of bees. This means that the estate yields four varieties of wine, three types of honey and one very good cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil—all under the Il Palagio name—that are enjoyed on the premises but are also available worldwide at gourmet purveyors including

“I’d imagined a house of our dreams, but I didn’t think it existed in real life.”

Eataly in New York. According to Styler, working with the land isn’t as foreign to her as it might seem. “I am a farmer’s daughter, so the idea of growing things isn’t alien to me,” she says. “It’s actually something I have in my blood.”

If taking in Il Palagio by the glass isn’t quite enough, the entire estate—which can accommodate up to 4 9 guests—is also available for private rentals; Styler herself has used the grounds to host retreats for the likes of Sean Parker and Sir Bob G eldof.

But Styler’s not counting on a career as an innkeeper to occupy her time. In addition to maintaining homes in New York and London, she’s becoming something of a movie mogul. As a partner in the production company Maven Pictures, she’s worked as a producer on films including S til l A l ic e and Ten Thousa nd S a ints and is currently trying to bring K haled H osseini’s best seller

A Thousa nd S pl end id S uns to the big screen. ( On-camera work hasn’t been frequent, but Styler has appeared onstage in London and New York in recent years and doesn’t rule out the possibility of making it a more regular gig.)

More than anything else—more than movies or wine or her work in South American rain forests—Styler says what really drives her is family. She currently logs only a few weeks a year in Tuscany, but claims she’s hoping to change that, to get her entire clan there for a whole month each summer. The idea is so appealing that Styler says it’s the closest thing she can imagine to heaven. “When I die,” she says, “I want to spend eternity at Il Palagio, sitting around a table with my closest friends and family, eating amazing food, drinking our wines and laughing.”

Sitting by the fireplace in Styler’s kitchen, that doesn’t sound like such a bad plan at all.

Wait Watchers FINE DINING IS EVOLVING,

AND SO IS YOUR SERVER. AS A NEW GUARD REPL ACES THE OLD, A GUIDE TO CHARTING THE COURSE

DUJOU R .COM

F

rom Michelin-starred chefs’ counters hidden inside pizza parlors to the latest 18-course “vegetablefocused” gastronomic fantasy/ yoga studio, haute cuisine isn’t about white tablecloths anymore. And as New York restaurant critic Ryan Sutton says, “The waiters are the diplomats of the restaurant”—no matter how absurd the latest regime. “They are super well-informed now, and they’re passionate about more than just the food.”

G one are the days of the tuxedoed F rench snob; say hello to the Z ac Posen– suited, Ph.D.-holding food scientist. F or your next restaurant expedition, we present a map to the world of waiters.

THE STEPFORD WIFE

THE NAVIGATOR

Like a butler or a geisha, a waiter once had the uncanny ability to predict our every need and silently meet it. Empty glass? More wine is here within 60 seconds, tops. Long day? The foie gras is just the thing to soothe your shattered nerves. Nature calling? He’s there to direct us to the restroom, hold the door and dry our hands on the way out. Sure, we were paying for the attention, but as relationships go, this one was damn satisfying.

Menus have become uncharted territory, and waiters know it. Sections like “land,” “fire” and “etc.” have replaced boring (read: practical) terms like “appetizer” and “entree,” and the only guarantee of a coherent meal is a 10-minute conversation with someone who knows the lay of the land. As Washington Post critic Tom Sietsema says, “If you have to explain how the menu works, perhaps it isn’t working.” Until this trend passes, the waiter is as indispensable a guide as Sacagawea.

THE GREASED PALM

THE STRUGGLING ACTOR

THE STRUGGLING FARMER

Once, it was ill-advised to show up without a pocketful of bills to pass out like Santa Claus: tips for the host, bartender, captain, coat check—not to mention the waiter.

How much to tip was a headache. But the only way to ensure personal attention at a decent restaurant was to make it rain.

Restaurants from NYC’s Dirt Candy to San Francisco’s Atelier Crenn are moving to a service-included model that adds a flat fee to the check and makes waiters’ wages more predictable. “I suspect that 10 years from now, no one will know what a tip is,” says Craft empire builder Tom Colicchio.

Scoring a good table has never been easy.

The sacred Book of Reservations would open 30 days in advance, and seatseekers would dial frantically and pray.

Those who didn’t make it were forced to try their luck as a walk-in, only to be judged by a host as immovable as Gibraltar.

With the VIP caste system and no-shows putting a hit on bottom lines, restaurateurs eighty-sixed the Book.

They’ve opted for an aggressively democratic no-reservations route.

Not willing to eat at 5:30, when doors open? The host takes a name and texts when a table opens.

Say, next Tuesday?

For actors, writers and the creatively unemployed, waiting tables was the ideal survival gig. A brain-free workday left them time to craft their masterpieces, and laissez-faire HR policies made it easy to bolt the minute a big break came. As they say: “Every waiter, like every prisoner, has a dream.”

These days, instead of scrambling to auditions, servers work the fields or wax rhapsodic about country life.

Blame Thomas Keller: His French Laundry, in the Napa Valley, started serving Vermont butter that could be traced to original herds.

We’ve been living with the Old MacDonald routine ever since.

ention the Shakers and mod ern probably isn t the fi rst word that springs to mind, but if ever there was evidence that trends are cyclical, it’s in the revival of the 19 th-century furniture style. This spring, in a booth at the European F ine Art F air, F ranç ois Laffanour— director of the Paris-based Laffanour-G alerie Downtown—re-created a series of Shaker interiors to showcase the “origins of modern design.” As Los Angeles design expert Oliver M. F urth says, “This type of furniture has been decidedly out of fashion for so long that when we see it now, it feels ‘ new’ again. . . . Its guiding principles are simplicity, utility and honesty. It’s a precursor to the minimalism of the 19 6 0s and the resurgence of the craft movement of recent years.” Indeed, from a double-rocking settee to an original meetinghouse bench, the Shaker aesthetic is comfortable in a room with contemporary counterparts. But more than that, there’s something tactile and communal about the designs. “We spend our waking hours typing or holding a device,” F urth says. “H umans are thirsty for furniture made by someone’s two hands.”

R estorat ion Har dw Minimalism needn’t be relegated to interiors. Not, at least, according to Danish designer Søren Rose, who collaborated with RH on the brand’s new Maldives Collection of sleek outdoor furniture. “In this digital age, people are spend-

suggests taking cues from the landscape, like a stone walkway or a pool. Decide “if it’s rustic or minimalistic, whether it’s clean or textured,” he says. Get creative with the palette, but don’t go overboard. A good outdoor space

k ( yar d) should enhance the exterior rather than overwhelm it. Pieces in the Maldives Collection, for example, have ultra-deep seats to make the most of your terrace. So go on and enjoy the view. It’s never been clearer. —JULI MOSOFF

isa Smith ( not her real name) had to pull over to the side of the road because she couldn’t see through the tears while thinking about Thomas G ilbert Jr. “When I heard the story about the adult son who killed his father over his allowance, I had a sick feeling,” the mother of two from Pennsyl ania writes. isa is re erring to the horrific case of the 3 0-year-old, Princeton-educated son of a hedge-fund manager who in January allegedly murdered his father, Thomas G ilbert

Sr., because he had reduced his son’s allowance. Like the G ilberts’, Lisa’s family’s wealth is relatively new; perhaps unlike the G ilberts, she has a stronger sense of her son’s instability.

“My son Jake works for the family business, and whatever we give him isn’t enough,” Lisa says. She loves her son but fears his violent temper and has had to confront some harsh truths. “H e lives at home, we pay for a new car every two years, and he says his father underpays him. But he won’t go and work for someone else.” Jake had just broken into

his mother’s trust fund and taken $ 11,000 for incidentals; he refused to pay it back, saying he didn’t “owe” them anything. That was at the heart o their recent blow p. “ he fights with his father are unbearable. I know he should be on his own, but I’m so frightened of what will happen if we cut him off.”

According to a recent Pew Research study of more than 2,000 adults, nearly 1 in 5 between the ages of 18 and 3 4 are getting financial help from their parents—sometimes a lot of help. And 3 out of 10 between the ages of 24 and 3 5 are living at home, the highest number since the 19 5 0s. The kids call it “being on the payroll.” And the grim joke among parents goes something like this: “What does your son do? “H e’s a waiter.” “A waiter? ” “Yes, he’s waiting for me to die.”

The subject, say therapists, is becoming increasingly fraught. Jane G reer, Ph.D., a Manhattan psychologist, says her clientele, generally the wealthy and the super-wealthy, are preoccupied with their offsprings’ failure to launch. “Parents who perceive themselves as excellent nurturers—far better than their own parents —don’t want to see that the logical extension of nurturing is dependency,” she notes.

Some observers detect a decided difference between parents with old money and those with new. A tradition exists among many of those with inherited wealth to help their kids, but the money is much more conditional. It pays for tuition and camps, bestowed on the children or grandchildren; perhaps they provide grander real estate than their kids could otherwise afford. But there is more of a sense that the children are custodians of their parents’ wealth, not owners of it. New money is much more open-ended, G reer says. “It’s more like, ‘ H ere’s your allowance, have fun in St. Bart’s.’ ” Sally K oslow, the author of S l ouc hing Tow a rd s A d ul thood : How to Let G o S o Y our K id s C a n G row U p, tends to agree about the lack of preset conditions, particularly among those whose aff luence is first or maybe second generation. “People are so deeply invested in their kids, they admire their kids’ champagne taste,” she says. The problem is, they have Bud Light budgets.

Of course, over the past few years the economy has been brutal to new graduates, and it’s common for kids of means to work at post-college internships that pay nothing or

style they have grown up in, they are in some way failures—which may account for studies saying the rate of depression and anxiety is higher among the children of the aff luent.

“The saddest thing to me,” says Lieber, “is that Tommy G ilbert Jr. was going around telling people he was starting a hedge fund. H ere was this person who, despite his Princeton education, would have been better off working as a music teacher or a carpenter somewhere.

But this was the life he knew, and if the stories are correct, he lived with a sense that he disappointed everyone. There are lots of one percent kids who are not violent, who don’t have what is probably his underlying mental illness, who nevertheless live like that.”

There is, I think, something else going on among this generation of well-off parents. The children feel guilty ( whether they admit it or not) , but they’re not the only ones. If our career focus has made us stint on time with our own

children, at least we can continue to cough up money. This, at least, is my thought every time my 13 -year-old son says things like, “Would you let me be a 4 0-year-old living at home, playing Civilization and eating nachos in bed? ” H is main goal in life is to torment me, of course. But I always read something else into his question: “Will you love me no matter what? ” Why does he doubt it? And what can I do to reassure him at this point? G iven my own predilection or p tting work first I ha e missed more than my share of soccer games— am I sure of my ability to say no to him if he took longer than I’d like to launch?

Perhaps it is that sense of doubt in her own parenting ( she came from a childhood of poverty and abuse, and she has stayed in a turbulent marriage largely for the money) that keeps Lisa shelling out the dough. Certainly her son feels both his mother’s guilt and his father’s disappointment. She says, “Every day my son is reminded that he didn’t make it on his own, and his father lets him know he’s not the man he expected him to be.”

next to nothing. As a certain mother, whose husband is one of the best-selling authors of our time, put it to me, “My son chose a career in the arts, and I suppose I think of supporting him as a kind of sponsorship.” I point out that her own husband made a good living, and then a great living, as a writer—rare, G od knows, but it happens. “We would never have dreamed of asking our parents for money,” she admits.

“But it’s a different time. I worry that my husband and I live in a townhouse, but without our help, our son could end up living out of his car.” Another parent of a son “in the arts” told me she has tried repeatedly to cut him off. “But then, there will always be some dire emergency,” she says. “It’s just hard not to put more money in his account when the balance is low.” H e is in his late twenties. “Maybe in a few more years . . . ” she adds wistfully.

Those who take allowances often seem not so much guilty as resentful, notes Richard K irshenbaum, a N ew Y ork O b serv er columnist whose new book, I sn’ t Tha t R ic h? Life A mong the 1 Perc ent, is out in June. “I hear these wealthy adult children complaining about how they have no freedom, how their family controls them through money,” he says. “I’m always asking things like, ‘ Why don’t you take your own vacation? ’ and the answer is, ‘ Well, F ather would be really upset.’ ” Adults I talked to who received parental largess had many interesting justifications, from “I’ve helped my parents out when they’re sick” to “My parents wouldn’t want me to work at something I didn’t enjoy” to “Don’t my kids deserve the same kind of private-school education I had? ” ( To which the answer might actually be: No.) But what comes through in all these discussions is the inescapable sense of doubt about their own competence. When you’re 3 5 years old, nothing says “I am a fraud” like a Birkin bought with Daddy’s stipend.

And therein lies one of the consequences of parents and adult children being enmeshed by money, says Ron Lieber, the “Your Money” columnist for The N ew Y ork Times. It’s not that there’s anything intrinsically wrong with the fact that so many parents help out a little. ( According to Lieber, approximately 20 percent of checks to private schools are written either by trust funds or people who are not the parents of the kids.) The problem, Lieber says, is the message to those in “the Lucky Sperm Club” is that if they do not live in the

Sanderson says he has used in business from the start of his career, and which he has since extended to his athletic endeavors. “If I get home from work or out of a work dinner and it’s late—nine or ten o’clock at night—and raining, I’ll go out and run because I have to hit my 70 miles a week,” he says. “If I don’t run today, I have to hit 20 miles the next day, and I don’t have time to run 20 miles the next day, so it’s not even an option.”

There’s also, of course, the undeniable appeal of winning. These guys aren’t Olympic athletes, but they know how good it can feel to best the competition, especially if the competition happens to be someone in their circle of business acquaintances. With races like these, says Weiner, the animalistic desire certain CEO types have to constantly outdo themselves, and each other, is fulfilled. Chris Solarz, a managing director at New York City consulting firm Cliffwater, holds five G uinness World Records, including one for climbing stairs ( going up 3 3 ,000 feet in less than 12 hours) and another for treadmill running ( achieving the greatest distance in 12 hours by logging 77.07 miles) . “I truly have not found my limit,” says Solarz. “I think my limit is when I’m curled up on the side of the road and I say, ‘ I cannot take one more step,’ and have to be dragged off in an ambulance.”

find the time? H e didn’t even own a bike! And so on—Theodore was determined. F ive months later, he was in Brazil at a starting line. It was there that he met tech entrepreneur Daley Ervin, who has since become Theodore’s racing partner-in-crime.

“Then it kind of escalated,” says Theodore, in what could be called the understatement of the century. The two went on to run hundreds of miles at a time, at extreme altitudes and through myriad terrain, eventually taking on the aptly named Death Race, a biannual elimination-format competition in which athletes co plete i ensely di fic lt mental and physical challenges over the course of many days, from scaling mountains while wearing backpacks fi lled with rocks to chopping wood for hours on end. Only 15 percent make it through.

“You don’t get to sleep,” says Theodore, somewhat boastfully. This coming December, he and Ervin will row a boat 3 ,000 nautical miles across the Atlantic Ocean from San Sebastiá n de la G omera to Antigua to raise money for Team Beyond, a charity they created along with Manhattan philanthropy consultant ( and fellow extreme racer) Jeff Smith to help se their races to benefit ca ses like h nger clean water and cancer. Team Beyond is anticipating raising $ 5 million this year alone.

Buttoned-up workaholics worth millions of dollars might not seem the most natural thrill seekers, but in a world that’s ever work harder, play harder, the combination is an ideal marriage. “As people take on more challenges at work, they also seek greater challenge in their personal lives,” says Dr. William Weiner, a New York City sports psychologist, noting that the interest among hard-charging business types in extreme sports—or extreme anything—has been growing steadily over the last decade. And although it may also seem counterintuitive for those who already experience extreme levels of stress at work to willingly seek out extreme pressures in their personal lives, Weiner also says the athletic ventures may have a positive impact on office performance. “In a certain way,” he says, “those challenges, particularly athletic challenges, sometimes embolden [ executives] to take more risks in the workplace, too.” Many who’ve reached the top of their game professionally no longer face the same sort of hurdles that they did when they were younger and just coming up. And they miss it.

The extreme work/ extreme play connection is clear to venture capitalist Philip Sanderson of IDG V entures, an ultramarathoner who created a TED Talk titled “H ow I H acked an Ultramarathon

by Thinking like an Entrepreneur,” which encourages the idea of committing strongly to each and every goal—no excuses allowed. It’s a philosophy

MOVING THE NEEDLE

It’s not great genes or even great Botox. The secret to aging well—really well? H uman growth hormones

ive years ago, at age 4 7, Manhattan Pilates instructor Rebecca Collins ( not her real name) felt the body she had spent years fine-tuning was starting to decline. “I was a little sluggish, unmotivated to work out and noticing my skin start to sag,” she says. She wanted an anti-aging boost that went beyond the effects of green juice and downward dog, and sought the help of New York City internist Joseph Raffaele, an age-management specialist. H is prescription: .5 milligrams of synthetic human growth hormone ( H G H ) administered daily intravenously, along with a once-in-a-while estrogen cream to tamp down any perimenopausal symptoms, like hot f lashes.

Today, at 5 2, Collins says she feels more energetic than she did decades ago. The fat around her midsection melted off, her muscles became more defined and the skin on her face continues to feel taut. “My sisters and I are close in age, and it’s all the same genes, but my face is plumper than theirs, and I don’t have the creases they have,” she says. “People are amazed when they find out how old I am, though I’m certainly not going to tell them I’m taking H G H , because I work hard, too.”

H G H , a protein naturally produced by the pituitary gland, stimulates growth throughout the body ( including cells, muscles and bones) .

The F DA has approved synthetic injections for those who don’t make enough of it, including kids with growth disorders or adults with degenerative muscle disease. But H G H has also become a tool among athletes and actors trying squeeze better results ( or a few more years) out of their bodies: Lance Armstrong, Suzanne Somers and Sylvester Stallone have all reported using H G H , and countless others in H ollywood are rumored to partake. F ortyseven-year-old PayPal cofounder Peter Thiel

recently said he’s hoping the hormone will help him live to be 120.

Raffaele started using the hormone himself at 3 7 and 18 years later looks nothing like other baby-boomer M.D.’s. H e’s lean, with shiny hair and skin that’s completely smooth—no jowls, wrinkles or under-eye bags in sight. At his practice, PhysioAge Medical G roup, roughly 20 percent of patients take H G H injections, usually in combination with other hormones. Among the benefits he touts: more lean body mass, changes in skin texture and moisture, fastergrowing hair and nails, improved cognitive function and even greater bone density.

Aside from anecdotal evidence, however, there isn’t a lot of raw data to confirm that H G H is indeed a miracle elixir. ( Which may be why most of the marketing happens at the grass-roots level. “I get all these calls from musicians and actors because they’ve heard about it at a party or at the gym,” says Dr. Andre Berger, founder of the Rejuvalife V itality Institute in Beverly H ills.)

There are two other issues that keep the hormone from exploding full-throttle.

Cost is one—a year’s supply can run around $ 15 ,000, since insurance doesn’t cover it.

Safety is another. Since hitting the market, H G H has been linked to a host of side effects, including carpal tunnel, diabetes and, most critically, cancer. “There’s a reason our H G H levels go down naturally as we age,” says K evin Yuen, an endocrinologist at the Oregon H ealth & Science University H ospital. ( The fear is that in large doses, human growth hormone could act like fertilizer on malignant tumors or damaged cells.) Still, for patients like Collins, who simply feel better on the stuff, that’s a gamble they’re willing to take. “I’m not just sitting around pumping this stuff up,” she says.

“But diet, exercise, H G H . . . these days, it has to be a combination of everything.”

heila Rosenblum doesn’t like to take no for an answer. “It may be the death of me in the end,” the Manhattan social fixture says. “Life should be about calculated risks, and not all of mine have come with calculation.”

As the founder of Lady Sheila Stable Two, an all-female horse-racing group based on Long Island, she’s had to not only embrace but also learn to revel in the reality of risk. It’s something the former ballet dancer and F ord model has taken to wholeheartedly. osenbl had irted with the er dite equestrian pastimes of jumping and dressage for years, but in 2010, when her then husband, Daniel, offered to buy her a world-class dressage horse, she decided she’d take a racehorse instead. d ittedly her first ew years in the horse-racing business were a string of missteps—“I’ve made mistakes, some really expensive mistakes,” she says—and industry types seemed to think she was a deep-pocketed, ash in the pan in estor who wo ld lea e the field as ickly as she entered it. In one early snafu, she was sold a horse that wasn’t technically for sale, an ordeal that ultimately required the involvement of the F BI and H illary Clinton.

Rosenblum’s luck changed, however, when she met Linda Rice, a horse trainer based on Long Island. “I didn’t seek out a female trainer, but she just blew me away,” says Rosenblum. “I wanted a New York trainer because I wanted to touch my horses and feed them, to watch them train in zero degrees and 100 degrees. I wanted a trainer who would take the time to answer questions because I wanted to learn. I didn’t just want to write a check and say, ‘ H ey, go do what you want.’ ” Still, it is a business, and that’s why Rosenblum has rounded up a cabal of eager investors—what’s known as a syndicate in the equestrian world—to co-own a literal stable of horses. “I surrounded myself with an incredible team,” she says. Some were old friends, some she knew only socially, but they each had a zeal for investing their money in a new endeavor. “We were all looking for something just a little different, something outside of our sense of security,” she says.

F irst to sign on was Rosenblum’s longtime friend Jill Z arin, best known for her stint on The R ea l Housew iv es of N ew Y ork C ity, who in turn brought in Dottie H erman, the CEO of Douglas

“It’s not an area to go into if one can’t lose the money she’s investing.”

Elliman. Donna Bernstein, the celebrated horse painter, also asked to meet with Rosenblum— “I thought she was trying to sell me art,” Rosenblum says—and philanthropist Iris Smith soon joined the group as well. “It’s all bright, hardworking women. We weren’t necessarily friends from the start, but we’ve become that,” Rosenblum says. “I have a lot of girlfriends who want to be involved and I say, you can’t. It’s very expensive, it’s very slow, it’s not for the weak of heart, and it’s not an area to go into if one can’t lose the money she’s investing.”

So, what gives Rosenblum the moxie to carry out such a risky endeavor? H aving spent her adolescence training at the strict Royal Ballet School in London and later the School of American Ballet, Rosenblum grew up avoiding any and all hazardous behavior. With

her dancing days behind her, however, she’s now able to dabble in more daring affairs.

“I’ve been making up for everything since my twenties! ” she says with a hearty laugh.

But racing is anything but a heartless undertaking. Of her star sprinter, La V erdad, who is a favorite to win this year’s New York– Bred Divisional Championship, Rosenblum says, “I’m emotionally involved. I was advised by two vets not to buy this horse, and yet I did.”

Though the eight investors—also included are Diane Davis and Jessie Laiken—are rarely in the same city at the same time, they all came together this April to root on La V erdad at a race in Saratoga, where they also had an official shareholders dinner and celebration at the Saratoga National G olf Club. Rosenblum might have once been known for her Upper

East Side soiré es, but these are the sorts of places she’s logging time in now.

Indeed, if you find yourself at Belmont or at Saratoga, Lady Sheila Stable Two horses— there are three in total—aren’t hard to spot.

“I chose the tackiest combination of colors that I could humanly find, which is bubblegum pink and neon blue,” Rosenblum says.

“I wanted to pick something that I could see from really far away when I get older.”

And just like that Rosenblum demonstrates that even from the beginning, when everyone doubted her longevity, she was always thinking long-term. “My kids told me that I promised everyone I’d quit if my second trainer didn’t work out,” she remembers. ( Rice is her third.) “But I have the luxury of changing my mind.”

PHOTO GR A PHED BY H E N RY H A RG R E AV E S

lthough the idea of drinking for health—drinking alcohol, anyway—is about as sane as going on a mayonnaise cleanse, bars these days are serving cocktails that are nearly indistinguishable from those fancy pressed juices everyone’s downing in the name of better living. At Alembic in San F rancisco, the menu description for the Southern Exposure calls out the antioxidants in the shot of celery juice it lists among other ingredients that include gin, mint and lime. At Percy & Co. in Seattle, the Mother’s H elper pairs gin with kombucha, while bargoers can add healthenhancing “tinctures”—for “brain power,” “complexion” or “female balance”—to any drink. Tanya’s Cafe in London has even gone full juicery-for-party-people, offering a line of “Superfood Cocktails” that includes the Maple Maori, with gin, kiwi, pomegranate, apple, calendula, carob and chlorella.

H ow did we get here? A theory is that once bartenders made the switch from neon green sour mix to fresh mixers, cocktails were already halfway down the road to smoothiedom.

H ouse-squeezed fruits and vegetables are far more palatable than bottled juices; matcha, bone broth, shiso and coconut water add une pected twists to traditional a or profi les and kombucha tastes much like the vinegary shrubs that have taken the mixology world by storm. Add the massive popularity of clean eating and you’ve got a trend, no matter how silly it might sound. “ hen I fi rst got hired I tho ght h y G od, how am I gonna make healthy cocktails when alcohol is bad for you? ’ ” says Johnny Swet, a bar consultant who developed the

drinks menu for health-conscious bistro Cafe Clover in NYC. Swet visited juice bars and vitamin shops, then worked with a nutritionist to build cocktails like the What' s Up Doc? — which contains Linie aquavit, carrot, pineapple and parsley, but certainly tastes like nothing your doctor has ever prescribed. “I mean, I

always think a cocktail is going to be a little unhealthy,” Swet says. “But you can make it better, and cleaner. And you can have less of a hangover the next day.” F or anyone who made a habit of another recent cocktail trend— four-shot Manhattans made with overproof rye—that’s pretty unassailable reasoning.

n a frigid mid-F ebruary evening, a meeting of the H arvard College Anscombe Society is late getting started. Outside, the snow in Cambridge rises depressingly high, and the sidewalks are streaked with salty slush. The gloom extends inside room 107 of Robinson H all, where the Anscombe Society’s e ec ti e o ficers all three o the are holding o calling the meeting to order. It’s a lonely business being a conservative on what is often described as one of America’s most liberal campuses, and the Anscombe Society—motto: “Where traditional values meet H arvard”— hoped a recent recruitment effort involving V alentine’s candy distributed in dorms would draw potential members to tonight’s meeting. But now it’s past 7 P .m., and so far copresidents Bella G omez and Thayer Wade and treasurer Bryan Poellot are the only ones who’ve showed up. Still, the group isn’t ready to accept defeat.

H arvard’s Anscombe Society is one of several on campuses across the country named for G .E.M. Anscombe, the British academic who advocated for chastity, family and the right to li e. he ar ard society has abo t o ficial members, but only a handful are active. That put the society in a precarious position when its last president graduated in 2014 . “[ Because] the club is so small and not that many people are active, we didn’t have an election,” G omez recalls.

“And then, when our president graduated, we were left without leadership.” G omez eventually agreed to take over, but given her commitments as a member of varsity crew, she asked Wade to serve as co-president. All things considered, a few new members would be a godsend. Wade glances at the time. “We’ll just give it a few more minutes,” he says.

It s not hard to fig re o t why the nsco be ociety has trouble attracting new members. The society is concerned with social issues, like “sexual integrity,” which includes a

call to abstinence; the sanctity of traditional marriage, which is to say the institution involving one man and one woman; and “true feminism,” which means, according to the society’s website, “equal rights and freedoms… that can co-exist with motherhood and the unique responsibilities it entails.”

Sure, there are millions of people who share those beliefs, but they’re not typically college students.

The society knows all this.

MORNING GLORY

The sun isn’t the only thing expected to rise and shine early every day. This trifecta of CBS newscasters knows firsthand WRIT TEN BY ADAM R ATHE PHOTOGR APHED BY SEAN DONNOL A

E

ach weekday between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m., more than 3 .5 million viewers welcome a triumvirate of C B S This Morning anchors into their homes. But for Charlie Rose, G ayle K ing and Norah O’Donnell—the news veterans who host the Tiffany Network’s morning show—the day starts long before they arrive at their Midtown Manhattan studio.

Rose rises at around 3 :5 0 a.m.—“I have multiple alarm clocks, though I generally wake up on my own,” he says—and the N ew Y ork Times lands on his doorstep at about four. By the time he reaches the o fice he has already de o red the morning paper and scoured the web in order to stay on top of the important stories. But Rose isn’t the only one keeping these hours.

“My alarm goes off at 3 :3 0,” K ing says, recounting her own routine. “The car picks me

up, and I get out of it looking like I couldn’t actually work on TV . Then I go into hair and makeup and it’s like, abracadabra! ” Of course, there’s more to getting ready for one of America’s most-watched morning shows than just a little bit of cosmetic magic.

Each day they’re on the air, the anchors come in as prepared as possible—news being news, there’s always some catching up on world events to do—and meet with producers and talk among themselves. “It’s go, go, go, go, go for the first few hours of our morning,” O’Donnell says, noting that while each anchor has an office, it’s not where the majority of a day’s work gets done. “Our office, in many ways, is the set,” O’Donnell continues. “That’s really where we work.”

And it’s paying off. The show, which has been on the air for just three years, has found success by bringing more serious stories to the traditionally y orning show or at li -

ing up to its oft-repeated tag line, “The news is back in morning news.” ( G uests have included weighty newsmakers like Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad, presidential hopeful Ted Cruz and the Dalai Lama.) And while C B S This Morning is still an up-and-comer in comparison with industry juggernauts Tod a y and G ood Morning A meric a , it has seen consistent ratings growth: In early 2015 , the program was reportedly up nine percent in viewers from the year before.

This kind of success is no small feat, especially considering the show’s hosts do some high-profile moonlighting—Rose on his eponymous PBS series, K ing at O magazine and O’Donnell as a contributor to 6 0 Minutes.

Still, this trio seems to thrive in the highintensity environment.

“It’s a pleasure coming to work every day,” Rose says. “G ayle and Norah make me better at what I do, because we share a journey and we share a mission.”

The former classics professor is one of the wine industry’s most respected risk-takers. He’s known for The Scholium Project, a winery that takes an unconventional approach: His three-member team forgoes fancy machines and stomps on nearly every batch of grapes themselves. (The wines are served at Michelin-starred restaurants like Per Se.) Schoener’s latest passion project involves raising $2 million to build an “urban winery”—and eventually a vineyard—in Central Los Angeles.

Michael Evans had recently completed a stint as a consultant on John Kerry’s presidential campaign when he visited Argentina for the first time. He planned for a short respite—and never left. Evans purchased land in Mendoza, started making wine and soon enough his vino-loving friends wanted in. His company, the Vines of Mendoza, has since facilitated the winemaking dream for 150 clients.

He recently opened a $16 million resort on the property to host owners and guests.

Now, after nine years at the helm of boutique Pinot Noir producer David Family Wines, Reeves is splitting her time with another entrepreneurial venture: I Know The Winemaker, an exclusive membership club that lets oenophiles skip decade-long winery wait lists and instantly purchase current releases of rare wines.

After growing suspicious that he’d been duped by a counterfeit-wine scam, businessman Bill Koch opened his prized cellar to a team of authenticators who determined that $2 million worth of his rare vintages were fakes. To prevent others from sharing his fate, Koch has spent an estimated $25 million on private investigators to expose offending auction houses.

e may be the only world-class artist who can boast of learning to paint via a correspondence course—in prison. F ortunately, Malcolm Morley was a better artist than a thief.

As colorful as his cinematic, action-packed paintings, Morley is sipping a cappuccino at the Carlyle hotel in New York and reminiscing about how he came to be a pioneer of photo-realism, the hyper-detailed style of painting that he prefers to call “super-realism” and that would help earn hi the ery first rner ri e in and the F rancis J.

and three dimensions, of the Alamo, Napoleon and a cannon ro the attle o ra algar or a different take on his longtime subject of war.

Morley’s psyche was marked by war from his earliest memories, when he was shipped off to boarding school in the . . at age in .

H is mother had not told him he was going until she said good-bye at the train station, leaving him with a lifetime of separation anxiety. But one night off the coast of Devon, where he’d been sent, a freighter was torpedoed, and the next day the schoolchildren were allowed to see the wreck co plete with oating loa es o bread. “ hat sinking reighter has been a rec rring theme, so in a sense, it was a blessing,” he says. H e loved war movies and was fascinated by the see ing ad ent re o pitfire essersch itt dogfights o er ondon d ring the lit .

In a ter stints in prison and art school, Morley immigrated to New York, not because it was the home base of the Abstract Expressionists but because he was following a woman, the first of his five wives. “I never had girlfriends,” he says. “Just got married.”

One day he tried to paint a ship in the harbor. hen he reali ed he co ldn t see the bow and the stern simultaneously, he bought a postcard of it, which he then faithfully re-created five feet long in oil paint, ushering in photorealism. “It required an enormous amount of

concentration and willpower,” says Morley, who relied on a trick from art school: using a grid to size up the image from source material to canvas. Painting square by square with a fine brush, Morley perceived his creations as a series of tiny abstractions; only the results were representational.

H e painted ships almost obsessively. “It took a while to realize I was trying to paint the ship that got blown up, that could never be painted,” he says. ( Morley underwent 25 years of psychoanalysis. “F inally the shrink threw me out.”)

H is loosened-up images of the 19 70s were the precursors to the Neo-Expressionism that fueled the 19 80s art boom, and his subject matter broadened to airplane crashes, animals ( harkening to the great British painter G eorge Stubbs) and athletes, our modern-day heroes. At 84 , he is still innovating.

“I’ve come off the grid,” he says, somewhat triumphantly.

Rather than working meticulously from a photo or a watercolor, Morley is improvising, composing the canvas one object at a time from models he has built—though with the same dedication to precision.

Robert Storr, dean of the Yale School of Art, calls Morley both “smart” and “unruly.” “H e’s continued to make really interesting, eccentric, richly layered stuff, and he’s no kid,” says Storr. “H e’s not housebroken, and his painting does not sit quietly on people’s walls.”

Brookhaven, Long Island, is now Morley’s home with his wife of 26 years, Lida. H e misses the energy of the city but says, “I live in the light. G oethe’s last words were, ‘ More light.’ I love the last words of dying people.” G oethe’s may be apocryphal, but asked to predict his own, Morley quips, “More recognition! ” H e laughs. “I’m pretty much insecure enough and secure enough to go on.”

Protagonist Simon might be a librarian by trade, but no training could prepare him for the book this novel’s named for, one that unravels the story of the remarkable women in his family—all circus performers who’ve mysteriously drowned on the same date.

Part sideshow and part thriller, the smart story follows Simon as he races to discover the secret behind his family’s curse with only days before his troubled, beloved sister could become its next victim.

It isn’t long after Jack’s mistress shares an anthology of his love letters with his blindsided wife that his life—the comfortable existence of a middle-aged, Manhattan-based artist—changes drastically for the worse. What comes next in this nimbly written tale aren’t more endings but instead beginnings—and moving ones—for Jack, his wife, Deb, and their two children. Pierpont’s debut artfully charts how a family is undone and then carefully patched back together.

The New York City of 189 5 , a brutal yet poignant place with its Coney Island attractions, Lower East Side tenements, underground opium dens and island lunatic asylums, comes vividly alive in Parry’s novel. With adeptly shifting viewpoints, the storyline follows the fate of four outsiders— Belle, Odile, Alphie and Sylvan—all of them strangers whose fates weave together in a resolution that is both satisfying and deeply affecting.

This darkly twisted spin on having it all comes from a former C osmopol ita n editor and fittingly its ambitious protagonist is an editor at a glossy magaine with an old oney fianc a ribeca lo t and a 25 -inch waist. But shocking traumas from her past threaten to destroy her carefully constructed facade.

A gesture to K noll’s own experiences in the vicious world of women’s magazines, her debut novel is a sharp, cattily funny, self-aware and captivating read.

orey Stoll could have slipped into any number of supervillain-appropriate costumes on his first day as the bad guy Yellowjacket in A nt- Ma n, the big-screen adaptation of the Marvel comic.

Instead, he ended up hanging from the ceiling, wearing a skintight polka-dot one-piece.

“We did motion capture on my very first day,” the 3 9 -year-old actor explains with a laugh, “and I was in this big room in a unitard with dots all over it. I was going over all of my character’s different motions, being strung up on wires and working through each little piece of stunt work.”

F or the lifelong comics fan, kicking off filming with a taste of high-end special effects was a thrill—but soon enough, he’d have to learn to play it cool. “I had to stop myself from getting so excited by all the toys,” Stoll says.

“I had to force myself to pay attention to my script.”

Luckily, focusing on scripts is something the New York native—who got his big break, and a G olden G lobe nomination, care of the first season of House of C a rd s—has had plenty of experience doing lately. In the coming months, in addition to his role as Yellowjacket, Stoll will play a man jailed for murdering his family in D a rk Pl a c es, a policeman investigating Whitey Bulger in B l a c k Ma ss and a vampire hunter on the second season of his F X series The S tra in. It’s a disparate group of characters, but Stoll says it’s the range of these roles that appeals to him.

ESTERDAY JOH N AND I were looking at couples therapy and stuff,” announces supermodel Chrissy Teigen, popping an oily Italian olive into her mouth. She clarifies: “Not for us, I mean.”

Teigen and her husband, the musician John Legend, are cuddled up at il Buco in downtown Manhattan. Over a tapas-style feast of roasted Spanish octopus, poached eggs with wild mushrooms, H awaiian K ing prawns and milky burrata, we’re discussing the intricacies of marriage—in particular, what makes theirs work, given the pressures of being in a “H ollywood” relationship. “We were watching a [ reality] show about the first year of marriage, and we couldn’t understand why things change so much when people get married,” says Legend, in the familiar smooth-as-silk tone that, for 10 years, has translated into hit record after hit record. Teigen deadpans, “H onestly, you would have to cheat. That’s the only reason I could foresee us needing couples therapy.” They

“WE DON’T DISCUSS

EVERYTHING IN PUBLIC, BUT I FEEL LIKE IT’S OK TO SHOW PEOPLE THAT WE LOVE EACH OTHER.”

sensation. She was in on the joke before the show had even ended. “Sorry I don’t practice my cry face, okay,” she tweeted, ollowed by a snap o her and egend i itating the e pression. “ ohn and hrissy co pletely re o e any e pectation we ha e about celebrity couples. Everything you see is authentic, and people respond to that,” says Joe Z ee, the editor in chief of Yahoo!

Style and Teigen’s cohost on the upcoming daytime talk show The F A B Life. “ e li e in an age where e erything is so hea ily contrived. Even Instagram posts can be produced and strategized.

But they’re just being themselves.”

“Strategy” is something that Legend hasn’t even considered.

H is and Teigen’s social media interactions range from snarky ( @ chrissyteigen: “John just called the hunger games ‘ the thunder games.’ I married my dad”) to sweet ( @ johnlegend: “@ chrissyteigen I wonder if our 16 year old selves would date each other,” accompanied by a nerdy childhood photo of Legend in oversize, owlish glasses) . They are almost always revealing in some way. “I never understood the purpose of being secretive and coy and trying to disguise the fact that you’re together,” says Legend.

“It’s odd to shut off a major section o yo r li e and say ell that’s off-limits.’ ” Teigen leans over, as if to give him a peck on the cheek. Instead, she digs her perfectly manicured talons into his scalp and proclaims, like a proud parent, that she’s discovered a gray hair. H e shrugs and contin es. “ e don t disc ss everything in public, but I feel like it’s OK to show people that we love each other.”

Legend did just that in 2013 with the release of his hit single “All of Me,” a romantic ode to Teigen that declares, “All of me/ Loves all of you/ Love your curves and all your edges/ All your perfect imperfections.”

The ballad earned two G rammy nominations, while the song’s intimate black-and-white music video—which the couple filmed two days before their wedding—became, in a way, their coming out as a celebrity duo. Teigen, true to form, couldn’t let the moment remain sappy forever. She took to Twitter: “2 grammy noms for @ johnlegend no one has congratulated me for being the inspiration behind ‘ all of me.’ without me there is no all of me,” warranting an equally quick-witted response from Legend:

laugh—as if to say, “Could there b e a more ridiculous suggestion? ”—and reach for more prawns.

Legend and Teigen may scoff at the label, but they are pop culture’s undeniable Couple of the Moment. In the year and a half since their September 2013 nuptials, their respective careers have skyrocketed—he went on a world tour, won an Oscar and performed at the Super Bowl; she landed the cover of S ports I l l ustra ted , inked a book deal and is preparing to cohost her fourth TV show. And while their success as individuals has been remarkable, the real appeal—the reason why fans are as enamored of them as they are of each other—lies in their dynamic as a couple. They are goofy, self-deprecating, unpretentious and totally, believably, in love.

Their social media personas, which reach a collective 19 million followers, chronicle life as a normal couple doing normal couple things: taking selfies, cooking dinner in their bathrobes, playing with their dogs and going on vacation, with only occasional dispatches from the more glamorous aspect of their lives.

It’s this willingness to offer such ordinary-seeming, noholds-barred access that, in fact, makes these two such a rewarding celebrity fi ation. e know that Teigen’s mother is ostensibly their third roommate, and that Legend makes a killer mac and cheese. Unlike more frustratingly elusive celebrities, they give us what we want—or at least do a very good job making us think they do. Consider this in contrast to Jay-Z and Beyoncé , who spent years denying they were an item, or Ashton K utcher and Mila K unis, who hid their marriage from the press for several months. ( Only after K unis appeared on a talk show wearing a wedding ring did she a big o sly confir that she and tcher were “ aybe arried.) That brand of orchestrated behavior is no longer satisfying to fans—we now favor celebrities who are relatable, imperfect and honest over those who are rehearsed and perfectly posed.

Teigen, though a supermodel, is rarely perfectly posed. At this year’s G olden G lobes, the most viral moment was not Legend’s poignant acceptance speech after his Best Original Song win for S el ma ’s “G lory,” but the reaction of his tearyeyed wife, whose awkward “ugly cry face” became an Internet

“@ chrissyteigen who told you this song was about you? ” But when you give people an inch, they’ll take a mile.

Legend and Teigen were recently on a f light together when Teigen, who says she reads 9 9 percent of everything tweeted at her, saw that she’d been tagged in a photo. A passenger behind them had snapped a picture of the couple kissing through the gap between the seats. “I rarely lose it, but I confronted him,” says Teigen. “I held my phone up and I was like, ‘ Are you f--king serious? ’ ” Legend told the guy not to be a douche bag.

I

T G OES WITH OUT SAYING that Teigen and Legend are extraordinarily attractive individuals, but they are somehow more beautiful together than they are apart.

When we meet, Teigen is wearing a sleeveless white T-shirt sans bra, like only a 29 -year-old supermodel can, her sculpted, candy-apple cheeks peeking out ro beneath the bri o a oppy beige hat. egend in a black beanie and black peacoat, could easily be mistaken for any dapper downtown hipster. We’re seated at a table at the front of the restaurant, exposed to New York’s cobblestoned Bond Street, when a photographer appears on the other side of the window. I become o erwhel ed with second hand paranoia ow did he find them? Did a waiter tip him off? But before I can bring it to their attention, the door swings open and in walks a young woman, her face partially concealed by a birdcage-style wedding veil.

H er father, the “paparazzi” and her new husband trail behind.

They’ve just tied the knot at City H all. eigen and egend who say they still eel and definitely still act—very much like newlyweds, grow nostalgic about their own City H all nuptials, a last-minute affair that cracks them up two years later. They didn’t realize they would need to bring a marriage license to their wedding in Lake Como, so they squeezed in a quick ceremony four days before walking down the “o ficial aisle. “I didn t know that we wo ld ha e to do the traditional vows. I was ready to just sign a piece of paper,” says Teigen, who wore black leather pants and a black V ictoria Beckham cape for the occasion. “But when it actually happened and I was up there, I started crying, of course.”

Not long after the couple met in 2006 on the set of the music video for Legend’s single “Stereo”—seven years and one day before their wedding—Legend knew there was something

different about Teigen. She was stunning, sure. But that was only part of her appeal. “The more I got to know her, I started to realize how funny and cool she was,” he says. “You meet all kinds of good-looking people, but she was so vibrant and engaging. Even when we’d text, she was always saying something clever.” H is eyes literally twinkle when he talks about his wife.

“They’re an intriguing couple,” says Sybil Dessau, a TV producer and one of Teigen and Legend’s closest friends.

Legend, who at 3 6 still describes himself as shy, started college at the University of Pennsylvania at 16 . As a 4 ’11”, 12-year-old high school freshman, he had been nicknamed Doogie H owser. Teigen has lovingly morphed the moniker into “G oogie Browser,” a reference to her husband’s fondness for G oogle. H is dream is to one day be a contestant on Jeopa rd y! “John’s the guy who is always reading The E c onomist backstage. H e’s an intellectual—he’s not funny, outgoing or crazy,” says Seth F riedman, Legend’s friend and former manager. “Chrissy laughs at him because he’s so square, and he laughs at her because she’s so irreverent.”

Teigen, meanwhile, has the sharp tongue of a comedian and an obsession with Taco Bell. She loves Nintendo and performing magic tricks. “Chrissy contradicts what you’d expect a model to be. She likes to eat, she likes to speak and she likes to be contro ersial says essa . “ he s not a wall ower and she’s unapologetic about it.” H er no-bullshit attitude toward fame has also struck a chord with women. In the spring, she Instagrammed an intimate photo of her inner thighs, and visible stretch marks, with the caption “Bruises from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretchies say hi! ” The post drew an onslaught of media coverage, including an article on Time’s website that hailed her as a bastion of body positivity. If that sounds like an overstatement—the idea that a swimsuit model might inspire self-acceptance among young women—just take a look at the comments. “Thank you for showing it’s OK to not be perfect . . . ” wrote one. “That a good personality and a sense of humor will take you a long way. We need more role models like you in the world.” And another: “Wow, I’ve always made an effort to keep mine hidden. So many women can relate to this.

Thanks to you, I don’t have to feel ashamed anymore.”

Legend is a needle-mover in his own right, using his fame as a platform to create awareness for social change, occasionally with a sense of humor likely inf luenced by his wife. In his “All of Me” video spoof that recently went viral, Legend hosted a wedding for his two bulldogs, Puddy and Pippa, serenading the

ATER TH IS SUMMER, Teigen will begin cohosting The F A B Life, a roundtable-style daytime talk show on ABC. “It’s going to be very weird for me to go to work at the same time every day five days a week,” she says, sipping a glass of rosé .

“H ow does this work? Can you call in sick? I’ve never had a job where it mattered if you were sick. With modeling, as long as you’re not barfing in the photo, no one cares if you’re sick.” Although they’ve long called New York home, Teigen will soon spend most of her time in Los Angeles, filming the show. When I ask Legend if he, too, plans on living in L.A. full-time, he looks confused, as if the thought of being apart had never even crossed his mind.

“I’ll just be wherever she is,” he says.

While Teigen is on set, Legend will head to the studio to work on his next album, which he’s hoping to release in mid-2016 . And then? “H ave some babies,” he says with a boyish grin. Teigen chimes in, “We want a lot of kids. I would love to have three or four of my own, and then adopt a few.

So basically I’ll be pregnant the rest of my life.” Imagining pregnancy is, to some extent, what inspired her to go nude for the D uJour photo shoot. “You look at K im [ K ardashian] and see how women’s bodies just become so beautiful,” she says. “[ The thought] of getting boobs thrills me. And John looooves pregnant women, so— ” H e doesn’t argue. “I’m attracted to the heightened femininity,” he admits. Teigen confesses that she’s partial to having girls.

“She thinks I’m not athletic enough to have a boy,” he says. “I’m a musician, I’m good with women and I’m a feminist, so I think I ll be a good girl daddy. lready he s planning or the financial strain of parenthood. “Part of my goal in making money is so that o r kids won t ha e to y on reg lar planes and e barrass s he says. “I sa ing p so they can y pri ate.

Private air travel notwithstanding, Teigen insists the couple won’t let parenthood change who they are. “I feel like sometimes when people give birth, they give birth to a tiny part of their brain. Whatever they thought they would be goes out the window and they kind of lose their minds,” she says. She doesn’t think she’s going to be that person. Still, while she’s at it, she’d like to make something else clear: “I am 1,000 percent not going to have an Instagram account for my baby. It will not have a hashtag. If I have a hashtag for my baby, just kill me.”

IF

you listen close enough—never mind the clinking glasses of rosé and ubiquitous steel-drum soundtrack—you can make out the sound of waves rolling lazily against the dock. It’s after dusk in Mustique, and the entire island has converged on The Cotton H ouse for the hotel’s Tuesday-night cocktail party, the paradisaical equivalent of a weekly town-hall meeting.

Two elderly gentlemen are wrapped in a warm embrace beneath a thatched-roof tiki bar outside of the hotel—they’d attended uniersity together and st crossed paths or the first ti e in years. boistero s gro p o rits is swilling artinis beside a fire pit in the sand; dinner-party invitations and double-cheek air kisses are being handed out faster than highballs of rum punch. It’s a decidedly swanky crowd—there are business titans, architects, fashion industry executives—and yet there are no dinner jackets, no lavish gowns and, perhaps most surprising of all, not many shoes.

Welcome to Mustique, a locale that burnished a reputation as the epicenter of barefoot luxury in the ’70s and hasn’t changed since.

On the three-mile-long private island in St. V incent and the G renadines yo won t find a single tra fic light street sign or .

There’s just one quaint hotel ( the aforementioned Cotton H ouse) and a tiny bed-and-breakfast. Most visitors prefer to take advantage o sti e s illa c lt re and right lly so. the homes on the island, 81 are available for rent on a weekly basis.

They come fully staffed ( think chefs, butlers, gardeners, property managers and housekeeping) and represent a portfolio as eclectic as their owners. Toucan H ill, for instance, is a sprawling four-bedroom home designed to look like a Moroccan palace, with domed pavilions, lush gardens and 3 6 0-degree views. It’s a stark contrast to Palm Beach, the six-acre British Colonial– style oceanfront estate owned by o y ilfiger.

The fashion mogul recalls being enamored with the island when he first isited years ago. “ here s so ething so e otic and pri iti e abo t sti e he says. “It s tr ly the ost beautiful, relaxing place on earth.” The American designer spent se eral years as a renter be ore p rchasing a fi er pper beach house in 19 9 0. A contractor advised that the property couldn’t withstand reno ations so ilfiger concei ed o a new design that stayed tr e to the aesthetic o the island. “I wanted an li er Messel British Colonial home made of coral stone,” he says, citing the nglish designer who de eloped sti e s first illas. ilfiger is st one o the island s any list ho eowners—a group that also includes Shania Twain, Bryan Adams and Mick Jagger. The list of renters ( Bill G ates, Jennifer Lopez,

Denzel Washington and Prince William and K ate Middleton) is arg ably e en ore i pressi e. or high profile isitors the allure of Mustique goes beyond its pristine beaches and watercolor sunsets: The island is virtually impenetrable to paparazzi. Its coastline is monitored by on- and off-shore security, and each guest arriving by air must be preapproved by The Mustique Company, an enterprise that functions like a co-op, managing all facets of life on the island.

Things have more or less operated that way since the company was formed in 19 6 8 by Scottish aristocrat Colin Tennant, who’d p rchased sti e or so e years earlier. ennant a man-about-town known for throwing extravagant society parties, decided to transform the undeveloped island into an exclusive destination. H e gifted a plot of land to his friend Princess Margaret after she married; she went on to build one of the island’s first ho es es olies a . he reno ated acre illa is still available for rent.)

“THERE ARE NOT THAT MANY PEOPLE HERE NOW,” SAYS TOMMY HILFIGER. Mustique soon became recognized as a celeb-studded refuge, and a building boom ensued. Jagger’s Japanese-inspired mansion Stargroves was completed in 19 83 , followed by David Bowie’s whimsical Indonesian pavilion six years later, and so on. In an effort to curb overdevelopment, The Mustique Company capped the total number of homes on the island at 13 0—a decision that remains unchanged, making ownership opportunities on Mustique scarce. Just a handful of villas are on the market ( through Douglas Elliman F ine H omes and K night F rank Residential) , and of the two empty plots left for the taking, one has a $ 9 million price tag. “ here weren t any people here when I first bo ght y ho e says ilfiger. “ nd there s not really ery any now.

It’s true. Mustique is the kind of place where everyone knows e eryone yo d be hard pressed to find a si ilarly inti ate acation destination anywhere else in the world. t its b siest—the week between Christmas and New Year’s—the entire island’s population amounts to fewer than 1,3 00 people.

“Even if you’ve only been here once, you feel like you belong,” says Jeannette Cadet, who is hailed by homeowners as The Q ueen of the Island. F or the past 28 years, Cadet has ser ed as anager o he sti e o pany b t no ficially, she is Mustique’s social chair and welcoming committee. She greets nearly every arriving passenger at the island’s 2,000-square-foot bamboo airport terminal, introducing newcomers to regulars and homeowners to hotel guests.

Cadet, a native of nearby St. V incent, says that the island’s warm, laissez-faire nature is simply the “V incentian” way.

or all of Mustique’s utopian charm, it’s admittedly not for everyone. There are no resorts, no shopping malls, no casinos and no Arnold Palmer– designed golf courses ( or any golf courses, for that matter) .

There are only three restaurants—no-frills joints that serve burgers and fries—and beyond the Tuesday night cocktail party, the only out-of-home evening entertainment is sunset jazz at Basil’s, a beloved watering hole on the beach that appears as though it hasn’t been updated since opening in 19 76 .

There’s an oft-shared tale about a real estate tycoon who, isiting or the first ti e rented the priciest ho e on the island for two weeks but was so bored he left after two days.

Still, those who appreciate the luxury of villa life—and the simplicity outside of it—never fail to return. “The ones that fall in love fall hard,” says Patricia Medford, Toucan H ill’s property manager, who left a job in the fashion industry and moved to Mustique from New York City about 15 years ago. Medford acts as a liaison between the guests and staff, executing special requests no matter how outlandish or complex.

“We’ve hosted a 200-person Moroccan feast with belly dancers, fire breathers and en on stilts she says. “ e e en ew in exotic pastries. I always say that with a little bit of money and a little bit of time, anything is possible.”

It’s not unusual for guests to spend an entire week without leaving the property, she says. And why bother? Especially when an affable in-house chef is at your disposal, preparing chilled carrot and passion r it so p resh grilled fish with aribbean spices and homemade ginger sorbet. “Our butler moves guests throughout the whole property. One day they’ll dine in the Mirador, and the next they’ll be in the dining pavilion,” says Medford. “Between the location, the tablecloths, the napkins, the glassware and the cuisine, it’s a new table-scape for every meal.

We have 21 different sets of dishes.”

When visitors do leave their homes, be it for a gourmet picnic at Lagoon Beach or a game of backgammon at Basil’s, they travel via “mule”—a jerky golf cart– ATV hybrid. Even the most uptight New Yorkers quickly adopt the tradition of waving to passersby, or stopping to offer a lift to a stranger on foot.

“Nobody locks their doors on this island—nobody. I keep my car keys in my car. I’m not supposed to say that, but that’s the way it is,” says Cadet. “I guess we live in LaLa Land here.

I hope it never changes.”

The drive from Tromsø to Olderdalen, in a U-shaped valley in northern Norway’s Lyngen Alps, is long, winding and not a little disconcerting, especially given the only rental car available to us is a Yeti, a misleadingly rugged name for a tiny, tinny vehicle not entirely up to the task of handling Arctic roads, even paved ones. When we set off before dawn, the hotel clerk warns us to beware of avalanches, and he isn’t just having fun with the Americans: Only yesterday, he reports, a G erman was killed by falling snow on the very roads we plan to travel. Then, amiably, i a little weakly “ o ll be fine. o r re e es are good As far as scenic drives go, though, this one—5 6 miles for which we are told to budget three hours—is hard to top, even without snow tires or guardrails. Although it is postcardbeautiful, this particular stretch of Norwegian coast, about 1,800 miles north of Oslo, remains almost entirely untouched by tourism. F or one thing, Norway—the world’s 11th largest e porter o oil doesn t e actly need the cash. nd so there are views without houses, or hotels, hoarding them; miles of glassy fjords and looming glaciers; no meaningful sign of human life beyond the occasional boat or wooden rack of cod laid out to dry. It’s frame after frame of nature at its most arresting as confir ed by a passenger seat photographer who insists on cli bing o t o the eti e ery yards. It s fine There is no real rush; no one here to answer to.

We’ve come to Norway to see the Northern Lights, those mythical curtains of color that streak the coldest, darkest night skies, caused by the collision of gas particles between Earth and the s n. ery decade or so to rists ood a rora iewing hot spots for a glimpse of the lights at their brightest and most frequent; peaks like the one happening now last for a few years. One night, as we sit on a cliff 9 0 minutes from Tromsø staring e pectantly tho gh not i patiently o t at the orwegian Sea, H alvar Ludvigsen, whose family has owned this land for nearly two centuries, tells me this year’s lights have been bright eno gh to wake hi ashes o red and green thro gh his bedroo window. “ o ne er gi e p he says o the waiting. “Just when you think it won’t happen, two minutes go by and yo get the show o yo r li e. al an ho r later nat re makes good on his promise, with a 20-minute display of gray and green waves dancing through the clear midnight sky.

With an airport offering daily f lights from Oslo, Tromsø is Norway’s most popular destination for Northern Lights chasers, and it’s full of packaged-tour buses and the selfie-stick-wielding tourists who ride them. There are some very good guides here, many of whom will take you as far as F inland in pursuit of the evening’s best lights, but you could also choose to head directly to one of those more thinly populated areas and let the lights come to you. Which brings us back to the Yeti: Our destination in Olderdalen is Lyngen Lodge, an eight-room fjordside hotel with a back deck built for staring at the sky. Owner G raham Austick was leading

chartered off-piste ski tours through the Lyngen Alps when he happened upon the land; he built the lodge to offer guests access to the unadulterated Norwegian wilderness, with the comfort of returning to high-thread-count sheets, outdoor jacuzzis and a refined food and wine program ( currently under the direction of a F renchman named V incent) . Most who visit the lodge for Northern Lights spend their days adventuring lite: dogsledding, whale watching, snowshoeing, fishing. By mid-March, when the lights begin to taper, the lodge opens up to more hardcore thrill seekers who come to ski untracked snow right down to the beach.

There’s a chancy social aspect to any small lodge setting, of course, and here the potential pitfalls are rendered even more apparent by the over-the-top peacefulness of the surroundings. By the end of dinner, the English are arguing with the F rench, the Austrians have stopped speaking entirely, and the Americans have been reminded of our status as such so many times we’ve lost count.

The Swiss: not always neutral. Communal dining with people you’ve just met is fun, unless it isn’t, and it’s easy to fantasize about returning when all eight rooms could be filled with people of your choosing ( which is possible; the lodge does private and small-group bookings) . The setting and the Thai-inspired dinner of Arctic cod pulled from the fjord that morning—and a few glasses of wine—help diffuse most of the tension, but we’re glad when we’re able to bid the Europeans so long and head to our comfortable fjord-front hut down the road, where we’re treated to hours of lights and zero political commentary.

Olderdalen seemed plenty remote. But the next morning, as our plane descends into Longyearbyen, about 6 00 miles from the North Pole, we understand we hardly knew the meaning of the word. Settled in the early 19 00s by a coal-seeking American, Longyearbyen is the main town of the Svalbard archipelago, whose year-round population of about 2,5 00 is sustained by mining, tourism and science and otherwise attracts, in the words of one local, “writers, explorers, photographers and alcoholics.”

Svalbard is also home to the G lobal Seed V ault, which safe harbors seeds from more than 4 ,000 plants from around the world, including all the essential food crops.

The cold isn’t as shocking as you might expect—the temperature on Svalbard averages about 25 degrees F ahrenheit. The bigger issue is the polar darkness, which lasts almost four full months. By early March, the light is a pretty predawn blue that grows brighter each day, but the sun remains hidden below the horizon. Timon Brü ggemann, a 23 -year-old G erman who leads us dogsledding and ice-caving, tells us the fear of isolation encourages people to be especially social during the darkness, but that it still results in a community of transients. Those who do stick around, meanwhile, seem to like to foster a Lost vibe. V iggo, a retired ar y o ficer who has been leading ta icab to rs here since 2005 , tells us that Svalbard “is a place where you don’t die of age, you die of tragedy,” which is only slight hyperbole. Many residents sleep with their guns, in case a polar bear barges in during the night. Still, says V iggo, Longyearbyen is a “perfect place to raise children,” because there is plenty of money, plenty of nature and, polar bear breaking and entering notwithstanding, no crime.

V isitors come to Svalbard for the nature, as well as for rugged

but manageable outdoor adventure—polar bear safaris, glacier walks, dogsled trips and other explorations of the Arctic wilderness and o tfitters like the one we sed pic oad can c sto ize itineraries according to interests and ability. Most residents get aro nd by snow obile or “snow scooter and on o r first day four of us get a brief tutorial before gearing up in giant snowsuits and embarking on a 120-mile journey to the island’s east coast and back in search of polar bears and other wildlife: reindeer, o es and birds. s I cr ise o er at per a rost and thro gh barren valleys of ice, I smugly think I must have a natural talent for snowmobiling: It’s easier than I thought. H alf an hour later, I less smugly tip my scooter while maneuvering some “terrain.”

But we are Arctic explorers! And, without any verifiably broken ribs, I’m not given the option of turning back anyway, which is sort of like when I fell off a horse in Patagonia. The next 100 miles are thrilling and terrifying, an emotional and physical love-hate roller coaster, as we travel up and over glaciers, through a blizzard, past giant holes in the earth ( “I knew that was there,” assures our guide, V egard, half-convincingly) and across ice that in warmer months is the Arctic Ocean. V egard rides with a rif le on his back, because although the goal is to see polar bears, the goal is to see them at a distance. The bears don’t necessarily share those goals, however, and they can run very fast.

While the outing is probably more intense than I would have signed up for had I fully paid attention to what would be expected of me ( i.e., some experience riding a snowmobile) , that’s also what made it so rewarding. K icking back on your scooter to stare into the Arctic Ocean from atop a glacier, a pouch of rehydrated potato stew in hand, isn’t an experience or a feeling you’re likely to ever forget.

That night, dinner is not powdery potato stew but multiple co rses at set the island s fi e star by any eas re resta rant in a building that has served, over its many years standing, as a post o fice a school a hospital and a ch rch. he wine cellar i probably one o northern rope s largest with abo t bottles and best, with a “two wine glass” rating from W ine S pec ta tor—was once a choir practice room. Although Svalbard has no arable land, most of H uset’s menu comes from local sources: Arctic char and snow crab, greenhouse-grown produce, sea vegetables and, of course, reindeer, which depending on who you ask, tastes like lamb or beef or the feeling you had when you found out Santa wasn’t real. The dinner and the restaurant do a very good job of emphasizing a point that by now is obvious: Svalbard is a place of extremes, and far warmer than its icy exterior might have yo belie e. en within the refined setting o set there is a cabaret performance going on upstairs, where after dinner we run into V egard, who greets us as if we’re old friends.

Two days later, the sun returns to Longyearbyen, just like that.

he entered the California Institute of Technology at 14 and soon had an affair with a professor’s wife, who bore his baby. ( H odel would ultimately father 11 children by five women.)

amar Nais H odel, the girl on the witness stand at H ollywood’s criminal court, was 14 years old in December 19 4 9 , but she seemed older. Involuntarily worldly. A photo taken soon after reveals a kind of Beat G eneration Marilyn Monroe: unsmiling, lush-featured, with a platinum blond beehive, big, red lips and a snug white cardigan. She was a smart girl, private school– educated, with rarefied tastes. But Tamar was, without a doubt, tormented. And the person who did the tormenting was her father.

G eorge H odel stared at his daughter from the defendant’s table. H e was charged with incest. A doctor with a genius IQ who specialized in venereal disease, H odel was an admirer of the Marquis de Sade and a friend of movie, literary and art world libertines like John H uston, Man Ray, John F arrow and H enry Miller. H odel hosted bacchanalian parties in his Mayan temple– styled home, built by Lloyd Wright on F ranklin and Normandie, in the L.A. neighborhood now called Los F eliz. It was in that house, prosecutors said, he raped his daughter.

One of the lawyers for the defense, Robert Neeb, grilled Tamar on the stand that day. The defense team’s strategy was to make the girl come across as unstable, a pathological liar. Neeb’s effort to do just that would have unintended consequences that would reverberate for decades.

Two years before the H odel trial, a savage murder shocked H ollywood. The mutilated body of 22-year-old Elizabeth Short, soon to be dubbed the “Black Dahlia,” was found in a vacant lot. No arrest had ever been made. To show the H odel jury how “crazy” Tamar was, Neeb asked the girl: “Isn’t it a fact that you told a roomer in your mother’s home in San F rancisco that you knew your father had killed the Black Dahlia? ” “No,” Tamar said.

But the terrified girl wasn’t telling the truth. Tamar d id believe it—and with reason. She lived in her father’s house and heard the whispers, including his veiled warnings. “It’s an evil place,” said the art photographer Edmund Teske. “Women were tortured for sport there. Murders happened there.”

Now, at the age of 80, Tamar is in a hospice in H awaii. In fragile health, she wants the truth to come out. Not the bits and pieces glimpsed by the world up to now, but her whole harrowing story. I’m the only journalist who has ever interviewed her.

Tamar describes an existence of abuse and violence, fear and guilt, all wrapped up in bohemian glamour. She was a stubborn idealist who lived a life following the principles of racial integration when you could be killed for doing so—and a desperate

optimist who named her last three children ( sons) Peace, Love and Joy. “She wanted so badly to be good,” her older daughter, F auna H odel, says. “Wanted” is the sad key word.

H er daughters, F auna ( a gallerist and motivational speaker) and F auna-Elizabeth ( né e Deborah) Simon ( a photo editor) , are true survivors, each from a different bad B movie. Also safely emerged from the mayhem is Tamar’s half-brother Steve, who grew up in an astonishingly licentious household to become, of all things, a cop. Steve H odel drew on all of his skills and training during a 15 -year-long investigation to discover whether his own father murdered Elizabeth Short. H e could not have done it without Tamar. At critical junctures, Tamar, and then one of her daughters, connected the dots. Dr. G eorge H odel as the Black Dahlia killer is a theory that more and more people support. But the victimization of Tamar H odel is not theory.

It is fact. And the details of her abuse—compounded by the tragic patterns created—defy belief.

H ollywood has presented, on screen and in real life, many stories of decadence, melodrama and crime, some of the best originating in the glamorous noir 19 4 0s. Most of these stories were invented or exaggerated.

This one isn’t.

H is domination was extreme. “My father used to stand at the mantel and read poetry to everyone and inform us this was G od speaking,” she said. She was sexualized. “Man Ray took nude pictures of me,” Tamar said. “I knew he was a great artist, but I didn’t feel comfortable. H e felt like a dirty old man.” She was pressured to sunbathe nude. H er father gave her erotic books to read, determined “to make me a sex goddess.” When Tamar was 11, H odel forced her to perform fellatio on him. “I gagged!

I was scared! I was embarrassed! ” The year before, in May 19 4 5 , Ruth Spaulding, the secretary at H odel’s venereal-disease clinic ( and thus the keeper of many secrets) , was found dead of an overdose. Police suspected it was forced but couldn’t prove it. H er death was ruled “suicide.”

Among the women who passed in and out of H odel’s clinic was Elizabeth Short, a brunette from Massachusetts. Short possessed an arrest record for underage drinking, a habit of talking to men in hotel bars and the usual naive dreams that brought pretty girls with Depression-era childhoods to Los Angeles.

During the last six months of 19 4 6 , Short lived in five different apartments in H ollywood. She was vulnerable. Eight people, including one who would later become a police detective, asserted that they knew, firsthand, that H odel had some kind of relationship with Short. The last time friends saw her was on the evening of January 9 , in the Biltmore H otel.

On the morning of January 15 , the severely mutilated body of a young woman was found in L.A.’s Leimert Park. The woman who first sighted the body thought it was a mannequin—it had been bisected expertly at the waist; there were signs of torture. The presentation of the corpse indicated that the murder occurred at another location; she was moved to the field to be viewed. These were the remains of Elizabeth Short.

Some who’ve studied the crime see clues in certain photos and

sought him out, providing him with all sorts of ammunition.

“H e had a dossier on the cops and their prostitutes—he had something on the police department,” Tamar told me.

When John and Dorothy H uston, now back in Los Angeles, divorced, H odel romanced Dorothy and renamed her “Dorero,” a combination of Dorothy and Eros. They married in 19 4 0, and H odel bought the F ranklin house, designed by the son of F rank Lloyd Wright. The doctor began to indulge his fascination with Surrealist art. It was a passion with dark underpinnings.

Surrealism was started in Paris as an outgrowth of Dadaism.

According to art historians Mark Nelson and Sarah H udson Bayliss, in their book E x q uisite C orpse: S urrea l ism a nd the B l a c k D a hl ia Murd er, “an interplay of irrationality, eroticism and violence was at the heart of Surrealism.”

Man Ray, a noted Surrealist painter and photographer, had become entranced with sadomasochism while living in Paris.

When he moved to Los Angeles in 19 4 0, the artist struck up a friendship with H odel. The two became very close.

Los Angeles was, in the ’4 0s and early ’5 0s, a simmering stew of sophistication, desperation and veiled danger. Brilliantly talented people of urbane temperament commingled with Dustbowl beauties whose ambitions often stalled at the hatcheck-girl or diner-waitress stage; hardboiled cops braved police and city hall scandals, such as the one captured in the James Ellroy novel and subsequent film L. A . C onfid entia l . At war’s end, the cheerleading sunniness of the Big Band musicals was replaced by the dark themes of noir—lovers had a sexy avarice, a delicious untrustworthiness. The subtle violence and perversity of this L.A. moment were captured in classics such as The B ig S l eep and O ut of the Pa st.

In the house on F ranklin Avenue, the lifestyle veered from the hedonistic to the G rand G uignol. And here is where a child made her unfortunate entrance. In 19 3 5 , another Dorothy— Dorothy Anthony, a San F rancisco model—had given birth to H odel’s daughter. H odel insisted on naming her Tamar for the protagonist of a poem by his friend, Big Sur poet Robinson Jeffers. “Tamar” was a tormented woman who had sex with her brother, reinterpreting a biblical story. “G eorge brought my mother and me into his home,” Tamar told me. It was like a harem: Dorothy, Dorero and, for a while, H odel’s common-law wife, Emilia—all with H odel’s children. “My father took avant-garde to the hilt, and the women went along with this,” Tamar said. “But it was hidden.”

Tamar and her mother moved out and back to San F rancisco, but when Tamar approached pubescence, H odel sent for her.

paintings. The art historians Nelson and Bayliss note ( and photographs show) how strikingly Short’s posed upper body resembled one of Man Ray’s photos of his wife, Juliet. The body’s pronounced bisection ( the top half was placed a foot away from the bottom) could be seen as a nod to a Man Ray painting, Le B ea u Temps. In addition, a man calling himself “The Black Dahlia Avenger” wrote letters to the LAPD and newspapers claiming responsibility, in one letter drawing a picture of a face in a stocking mask, like one of Ray’s of Juliet. Most stunningly, L.A. artist William Copley did a painting in 19 6 1, showing a doctor with tort re in icting tools and a dead n de wo an on the oor.

A hard-to-escape conclusion: The Surrealists were winking at the murder of the Black Dahlia.

H undreds of police officers investigated Short’s death; more than 5 0 people “confessed” but were cleared. During the months and then years of fruitless investigation, Tamar’s young life was unraveling on F ranklin Avenue. She worshipped her father and she feared him. “The pharaohs had sex with their daughters,” he’d rave. She f led to her mother, who made her feel as if she, not H odel, was the “bad one.” She returned and became pregnant by H odel after he raped her in the summer of 19 4 9 , and she had an abortion. Afterward, her father, jealous of boys she knew in school, “hit me with a gun and screamed and yelled and went insane.” H er stepmother, Dorero, urged her to “ ‘ run away right now,’ ” Tamar said. “She told me my father had committed a murder [ of his secretary] .” Tamar went into hiding with a friend’s family. When the police tracked her down, “the officers said, ‘ We know all about your father.’ ” But on December 23 , 19 4 9 , despite two eyewitnesses who testified that they d seen odel orcing se on a ar he was ac itted. ( It was later found that other witnesses were given payoffs of $ 10,000 to $ 15 ,000 to commit perjury.) Tamar—publicly branded a slut and a liar at 14 —was remanded to a juvenile detention home.

The trial set something else in motion: The LAPD was now hot on H odel’s trail for the Black Dahlia murder. When lawyer Neeb made his bombshell accusation, he had no idea that his client ever knew Elizabeth Short. Nor did he realize that G eorge H odel w a s an early suspect, because of a drunken, guilty-sounding muttering of H odel’s at a nightclub ( reported to the district attorney, though the lead went nowhere) . Now detectives planted recording devices inside the walls of the F ranklin house, and 18 officers listened in around the clock.

They heard H odel tell a friend, “Supposin’ I did kill the Black

Dahlia? They can’t prove it now, because my secretary is dead,” and remark that his plan was “Never confess.”

If the police planned to arrest H odel, it never happened. In March 19 5 0, H odel f led Los Angeles, settling in the Philippines and marrying an aristocratic F ilipino. After they divorced, he took yet another wife in San F rancisco, lived in a penthouse and died at age 9 1 in 19 9 9 .

H odel managed to elude arrest for any crime. The police tapes containing his conversations about Short and Spaulding were “lost.” But they were not gone.

F

or much of her life Tamar H odel struggled to recover from abuse and condemnation. Released from juvenile detention to her mother’s house, she got pregnant again after a boy in the neighborhood raped her. Tamar had the baby girl at a hospital in San F rancisco. Even though the infant’s father was white, she told her family and hospital staff he was black because “I was shocked by the way whites treated blacks in the juvenile hall. I was embarrassed to be white.” H er heroes were Marian Anderson, Langston H ughes, Paul Robeson and Josh White. She watched a nun take the baby, at her parents’ orders.

G eorge H odel was never not in control of Tamar’s life. H e named the baby F auna, for another incest-tinged poem by Jeffers. But he didn’t want her raised by the H odels. H e ordered Tamar’s mother to drive to Reno to find a black woman willing to be given a baby under his terms: She would not be officially adopted and she must keep her name, F auna H odel. A ladies’ room attendant at a casino, a woman named Jimmie Lee, agreed. When, at the hospital, Jimmie Lee balked—this baby was white! —H odel assured her, “One day she’ll darken.”

F or the next 15 years, F auna lived with Jimmie Lee, who became an alcoholic prostitute. F auna experienced the full discrimination of being in a black family, but, since she never did “darken,” she was also made to feel like an alien in her community. A saving grace for F auna was Jimmie Lee’s live-in boyfriend, a shoeshine man who, F auna says, “instilled kindness in me.” Another saving grace: staring at her birth certificate and dreaming of meeting her birth mother.

As for Tamar, she remained artistic, precocious—and wounded. At 16 , she married a black artist in Mexico, then left him after he beat her so badly she attempted suicide. In San F rancisco, she married a second time. H e was Stan Wilson, a black folksinger and activist. She became a people-connecting socialite in the interracial avant-garde, spending evenings at the H ungry i with H arry Belafonte, Maya Angelou, Lenny Bruce and Bruce’s stripper wife, H oney. She had a daughter with Wilson and named her Deborah. Though Tamar was, this now-adult daughter says, “very brave” in confronting the hate of being married to a black man in the early 19 5 0s, her parenting almost helplessly followed the sick route etched by her sadistic father and her own enabling mother: She introduced Deborah to sex at age 10—the girl’s eve-

ing the case that his father was the killer. It was a best seller, but he still didn’t have the whispered-about secret-evidence file containing the bugging of the F ranklin house.

A chance meeting changed everything. In 2002, F auna H odel introduced herself to an elderly man at her L.A. gallery who said, “H odel? That’s an unusual name. I bugged a home on F ranklin Avenue of a Dr. G eorge H odel. Murder case of Elizabeth Short.” e was retired cop alter organ and his confir ation o the tapes’ existence gave the search new life. In 2003 , L. A . Times reporter Steve Lopez located the transcripts of the tapes, which had been hidden by the case’s 19 5 0 DA investigator. Steve H odel wrote three follow-up books, all with new evidence. The latest one was published in 2014 .

The results of Steve H odel’s investigation have been deemed conclusive by four LAPD officials. While the public position of the LAPD is that Short’s murder is unsolved, a former head of detectives, James McMurray, has said, “G o ahead and clear the Black Dahlia case.”

F or Tamar and her children, closure hasn’t been as clear cut, but in the last few years, F auna-Elizabeth Simon says triumphantly, “We broke the chain.” Tamar is finally able to understand the cruelty done to her at every level. At the end of her life, she has four grandchildren, all emotionally healthy and enjoying careers. “I love and forgive my mother,” says F auna-Elizabeth, the daughter she raised. The other F auna, the one given away, says, “Tamar is the most fascinating woman I know—and the most troubled—but did she want to save the world? Yes, she did.” By shattering the H odel curse, her daughters helped save her.

“Steve, the paramedics are here,” said the voice on the phone in the middle of the night. “They just pronounced your father dead.”

The fourth wife of H odel had reached out to his favorite child te e by then a retired police o ficer. te e ade his way to San F rancisco and, while going through his father’s effects, found a curious thing: a photo of Lucie Arnaz as the Black ahlia in a o ie. hort s horrific nsol ed rder still held people in thrall, the subject of books and movies.

When he made a call to his half-sister Tamar, she said, “You know our father was a suspect in the Black Dahlia murder.”

H orrified, Steve moved to L.A. and “followed the evidence” piece by piece. H e compared his father’s letters to the handwriting in the anonymous ones written to newspapers ( “That was my father’s handwriting, no doubt”) and interviewed dozens of people he knew from childhood. H e found a receipt for his father’s purchase of cement bags the day after Short disappeared; identical empty bags were found near the corpse.

Steve H odel published a book, B l a c k D a hl ia A v eng er, mak-

nings with men paid the rent after Tamar’s divorce. And Tamar did not protect her from the family’s psychopath patriarch. When Deborah was 12, H odel took the girl to a fancy lunch, slipped a drug in her drink “and I woke up hours later spread-eagled and undressed” in her half-clad grandfather’s presence.

While raising Deborah, Tamar became a big-sister figure to her beautiful 12-year-old neighbor, Michelle G illiam. She was later to become the singer Michelle Phillips. “Tamar was so exotic, she was instantly my idol,” Phillips says today. But “she didn’t have a friend in the world.” And, even as a tween, Phillips knew there was something wrong with Tamar’s insisting, as if to rationalize her life, that it was a good thing to have sex with your father. Years later, when Michelle dated Jack Nicholson, she told him the tales she’d learned of Tamar, and they ended up in the screenplay for C hina tow n. Of all people, John H uston, H odel’s former best friend, played the powerful father who raped his daughter and forced her to have the baby.

Tamar moved with Deborah to H awaii. H earing the beautiful name of the sister she never expected to meet, Deborah legally changed her name to F auna-Elizabeth. Tamar had three sons and was often stoned on psychedelics as a way to blunt her pain. Deborah-turned-F auna-Elizabeth tended her little brothers.

In 19 72, the family dynamic changed dramatically. The original F auna had tracked Tamar down. “I almost died when I found out I wasn’t part black,” F auna says. “Being black was so important to me.” Meeting the decadent sophisticate took F auna aback. “I thought she would be like Doris Day! ” But mother and daughter forged a bond, as did the half-sisters. They shared something with their mother: F auna and F auna-Elizabeth had had babies at 15 . But they were determined to make something of their lives. F auna wrote a memoir, O ne D a y S he’ l l D a rk en.

In 19 9 1, it was made into a movie, Pretty Ha ttie’ s B a b y, starring and produced by Alfre Woodard. It was scrapped just after the rough cut was screened, leading to suspicions that H odel, still alive, used what power he still had to get it shelved.

But eight years later, his inf luence was gone, and some of his darkest secrets emerged.

H e’s living every 26 -year-old guy’s dream right now, and he’ll be damned if anyone tries to take that away from him.

“There’s definitely a time to party and a time to focus on work, but you need to let loose a little bit so that you can go back on Monday feeling refreshed and motivated to work hard again,” he says. “People act like dancing is breaking the law and partying is a crime. Everyone thinks I’m in trouble 24 / 7, but what have I really done besides dance? ”

It would be impossible to wholly understand the essence of G ronk witho t first considering his childhood. H e was the second yo ngest in a a ily o fi e brothers, which meant that life at the G ronkowski residence in Buffalo, New York, was akin to A nima l House, but with more bulk and less booze. Rob’s father, G ordy, played college football, and his sons, as luck would have it, inherited his golden ticket in the genetic lottery. ( Today, the average weight among them is around 25 0, and all are over six feet tall.)

The G ronk household was a breeding ground for athletic talent—the basement boasted a full-size gym, and the backyard was decked out with a tennis court, a baseball field basketball hoops and a hockey net. While Diane, the family matriarch, provided the fuel—she’d spend the entire day in the kitchen whipping up enough chicken par esan to eed an ar y ordy pro ided the fire. In the backyard, he would run tennis drills, baseball drills, football drills; consistently pushing his boys to be stronger, better, faster. Sibling rivalry engendered a spirit of healthy competition, and ultimately, three o t o the fi e brothers ade it to the . one wo ld be as successful as Rob, though.

G ronkowski landed at the University of Arizona, a Division I school that would serve as the perfect platform to showcase his talent. But a back injury sidelined him for the duration of his junior year, and the promise of being an early draft pick dissipated. H e was selected by the Patriots in the second round of the 2010 draft, 4 2nd o erall. “It was definitely a blessing in disg ise he says. “ o e players peak at 20 years old, so if you pick them in the top 10 just because they dominate in college, it doesn’t mean that they’re going

A massacre has just occurred at a ritzy restaurant in northern Miami. The assassin—a man beast of 26 5 pounds with a treetrunk-thick neck—is sawing mercilessly into the pile of bloody f lesh. “I usually don’t cut it before I eat it,” he admits. A speaker trembles with the heavy bass of a Whitney H ouston dance remix.

H is voice rises an octave as he tears a particularly large chunk free and says: “Sorry! That was intense.”

Watching a 6 ’6 ” professional football player have his way with a 14 -ounce New York strip is a brutal experience, but New England Patriots tight end Rob G ronkowski has a hard time dialing back his intensity, even when he’s not playing football. Still, the herculean force he brings to the dinner table—evocative of his take-no-prisoners approach on the field is isleading.

In reality, he is the gentlest of giants, with kind eyes, a dopey grin and the ambiguous sort o accent that so nds at first midwestern, but is really the product of upstate New York.

At the age of 26 , G ronkowski, a newly minted Super Bowl champion, has already locked in a six-year, $ 5 4 million contract—the most lucrative deal for a tight end in NF L history. H e’s set several all-time records for his position, cementing a reputation as the best tight end in the league, if not the best tight end to ever play pro football. That’s no small feat, considering he’s suffered ( and bounced back from) two major injuries that threatened to ruin his career.

But as much as he’s been lauded for his remarkable talent on the field ronkowski s e trac rric lar beha ior has garnered even more attention. If quarterback Tom Brady is the Patriots’ demure sophisticate, well, G ronkowski is his fratty, fun-loving foil.

And fans can’t get enough of him. H e has become something of a pop-culture phenomenon: G ronkowski’s post-touchdown tradition of football spiking ( and spiking other things, like bouquets, hockey p cks and cakes o the field has inspired a iral ideo trend called “gronking whereby ans fil the sel es spiking inani ate obects. e is the s b ect o an erotic an fiction no el that was an azon K indle best seller.

The Miami meat massacre has ended, and being that we’re in a steakhouse with an encyclopedia-size wine list, I suggest we do a tasting. A sommelier arranges 15 wineglasses on the table in front of me, G ronkowski and his childhood friend, John Ticco. “H e’s humble because he had three older brothers, so there was always someone bigger and better than him,” says Ticco, a baby-faced real-estate broker who still resides in their hometown. “H e’s just an average dude who grew up in Buffalo. I don’t think he’s ever forgotten that.”

The sommelier begins gingerly pouring. “This is 6 0 percent Malbec and 4 0 percent Cabernet,” he says filling three glasses with an opa e red li id.

“You can tell by the color that it’s full-bodied, but the tannins give it a super-velvety feel, and . . . ” G ronk’s eyes have glazed over. H e smiles politely, but his disinterest is palpable. “It would have been cooler to do a beer tasting,” says Ticco. G ronk nods in agreement. “My drink is usually vodka with water because it gets you hydrated and drunk at the same time,” he explains after the sommelier has departed.

“I never drink wine. There’s only one wine I like, but I forget what it’s called. It tastes like Sprite.”

What began as a single week a few years ago grew into a year-round program of multidisciplinary events, speakers and panels, leading up to the weeklong festival and innovation platform in October that brings together global thought leaders and hosts hands-on labs throughout the city.

Co-founded by serial entrepreneur and Groupon co-founder Brad Keywell, Chicago Ideas is an accessible, all-inclusive forum joining luminaries across disciplines. Politicians talk to inventors, poets talk to scientists, business leaders talk to artists, all with the intention to connect and catalyze action across the city. The majority of talks and labs (behind-the-scenes explorations formerly unavailable to general audiences) are open to the public at an affordable $15 per event. This year’s conference takes place October 12 through 18. Speakers include such industry heavyweights as George Lucas and former GE CEO Jack Welch. CHICAGOIDEAS.COM

Whether you’re seeking a clean design or a quirky, colorful theme, you’ll look good on paper no matter what the occasion.

Founder and former Neiman Marcus art director Heather Wiese-Alexander used her love for Italy and quality craftsmanship as the inspiration for Bell’Invito, Italian for “beautiful invitation.” The brand delivers that and more—elegantly crafted calling cards, save-the-dates and thank-you notes— designed using presses from the late 1800s. “Stationery has become a fashion statement instead of something you simply reach for your in your desk drawer,” Wiese-Alexander says.

Fittingly, the founder of AG Phillips—sold at Neiman Marcus, Tootsies and Elizabeth Anthony—has introduced a collection of little white frocks. “Incorporating white into your wardrobe makes you look chic when it’s 100 degrees,” Phillips says. She recommends completing the look with bold accessories in blue, like turquoise Jimmy Choo sandals. AGPHILLIPS.COM

CHARLIZE TACOS Spicy tuna, avocado, fried wonton skin, rice, creamy wasabi and sweet soy

Long a fixture for high-end sushi-lovers on L.A.’s Westside ( and tucked away in a nondescript strip mall) , H amasaku has certainly changed since it opened in 19 9 8. F or years, the restaurant was known for creative menu items inspired by a celebrity clientele—the Charlize tacos, the Twilight Roll and other dishes named for Julie Andrews and Candy Spelling. But after more than a decade of serving fame-inspired fish, it was time for an update.

These days, the menu has turned toward more refined Japanese fare, thanks to the leadership of executive sushi chef Yoya Takahashi and executive chef Wonny Lee, and the decor has been overhauled by architect Marwan Al-Sayed ( of Utah’s Amangiri resort) , who brought in a new “bento box” aesthetic, with blond wood and felt and fabrics in a wide variety of colors and textures. Offsetting the new design is an impressive selection of Japanese art from the collection of the restaurant’s owner, H ollywood power player Michael Ovitz.

“The quality of food and warmth of hospitality has never changed, and as all things need to evolve, it was important to not interrupt the overall ethos we originally created,” says Ovitz, a famed aficionado of Eastern influences. “Marwan Al-Sayed’s interpretation of what we had to offer breathed a new life into the space and mirrors the simplicity that I’ve always admired in Japanese design and culture.” And that’s change we can live with.

emlines may rise and fall, but there’s more changing in fashion than just the garments—and Max Mara is a prime example.

“We are a company that’s not about revolutions but about evolution,” Maria G iulia Maramotti, the company’s U.S. retail director, explains. “Today’s woman is different than when my grandfather started: She wants to be comfortable, beautiful and impeccable.”

And while it’s certainly true that times have changed since Achille Maramotti, Maria G iulia’s grandfather, founded the fashion house, there are some things about the Maramotti family that have always stayed the same. The most prominent example being their unwavering devotion to the arts, something most recently apparent in their sponsorship of April’s opening party for the Renzo Piano–de signed Whitney Museum of American Art on the H igh Line.

That partnership is organic for the family, which owns the Collezione Maramotti, a private contemporary-art collection outside Milan, and has sponsored the Whitney Art Party for the past two years.

“The Maramotti family has dedicated themselves to making modern and contemporary art available to the public,” says museum director Adam D. Weinberg, “and has demonstrated outstanding support for the arts internationally.”

F or Maria G iulia, the Whitney isn’t international; it’s just her neighbor. She’s called Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood home for the past three years, and New ork has been a h ge in ence on the brand. That’s most obvious in its pre-fall collection, which features a leather Whitney Bag, available in three sizes and four colors and the result of a collaboration with the Renzo Piano Building Workshop.

“What’s happening in the city’s art and music scenes is very contemporary,” Maramotti says. “This lifestyle is really in line with our brand’s DNA.” —N at as ha W ol ff

AMAZING SPACES

TWO EXCITING NEW OVERHAULS ARE HEATING UP THE DOWNTOWN SOCIAL SCENE

THE BIG SIX-OH

LA NUOVA BELLA NOTTE

After a major makeover, a SoHo stalwart is reborn

A venue for Cipriani is truly a worthwhile event

The hotel at 60 Thompson Street has been a downtown destination—for dining, drinking and countless swanky soirees—since it opened in 2001. And while the address hasn’t changed, thanks to a recent overhaul the hotel now known as Sixty SoHo feels entirely new. In addition to a renovation by interior designer Tara Bernerd that tackled the hot spot’s public spaces and all 97 guest rooms, other upgrades include a new bar and coastal Italian restaurant from hospitality guru John McDonald and the reopening of the famous rooftop lounge. “It’s reflective of how SoHo’s grown up,” explains co-owner Jason Pomeranc. “There’s a great past but also a refined present and future. It speaks to the idea of how hospitality has evolved.”

The result is decidedly modern, with high-end furnishings, art by Ryan McGinley and Harland Miller and an upscale atmosphere that places it among the city’s most alluring spaces—if you’re the right kind of guest. “It’s not meant to appeal to everyone,” Pomeranc says. “It takes a specific point of view.”

Cipriani’s worldwide Italian restaurant empire is expanding yet again—and to one of its grandest locations yet. The celebrated culinary dynasty has opened a second event space in lower Manhattan, in the Great Hall of the landmark Cunard Building at 25 Broadway.

The venue, completed in 1921, features 69-foot arched ceilings decorated by a vast Ezra Winter mural, and will be a fitting home for the Italian brand. “Twenty years ago my father [Giuseppe] recognized the potential of these beautiful landmarked buildings and the opportunity of giving them a new life with great events and celebrations,” says Maggio Cipriani. “We thought that it was a unique space with spectacular decoration and a perfect addition to our collection.”

The former Cunard Steamship Line ticketing office and U.S. Postal Service building, which can house up to 1,000 guests, has already played host to Victoria Beckham’s fall runway show. “It reminds me of a time when New York was probably the busiest port in the world,” says Cipriani.

“I was doing a lot of work for beauty companies who focus on pushing products rather than helping consumers do what’s right for their skin,” CEO Adam Ross says. “And personally, looking after my skin was becoming increasingly confusing, expensive and time-consuming.

In speaking with my friends, everyone was equally frustrated, so I became convinced there had to be a better way.”

DO YOUR LAUNDRY Skin Laundry promises to improve smoothness and tone while diminishing the appearance of acne and pores with a 10-minute medical-grade noninvasive YAG laser treatment and IPL light therapy, which vaporize the dirt and toxins in the skin. The concept came to Yen Reis while living in Singapore and suffering from acne following the birth of her third child. Upon returning to Los Angeles, she founded the first of many clinics in 2013, but the Flatiron outpost marks the company’s East Coast debut. “Even though we are a medical facility, we wanted to remove any clinical feeling and enhance the overall experience,” Reis explains.

Ryan Harwood, founder and CEO of the women’s lifestyle site PureWow, worked at Goldman Sachs for five years before realizing there was a big digital space that needed filling. Here, we pick his brain.

WHY DID YOU LAUNCH PUREWOW? Many of the sites meant for women weren’t appealing to them. Women were looking for a voice that didn’t silo them into buckets as a mom, career woman, divorcee, etc.

Sure, they wanted a Kardashian moment or two, but they also want financial advice, or a tip on what book to read next.

HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THE NAME? WOW is an acronym for “Women on the Web.” We also implemented a “wow factor” into the discoveries we cover editorially, and the name PureWow fit.

WHAT MAKES FOR A SUCCESSFUL WEB STARTUP? It’s always about the people. You will face a ton of obstacles along the way, so leaders need to be thick-skinned and resilient. It also takes an understanding that you’re going to have to do a lot without a lot of money.

WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM WORKING IN A MOSTLY FEMALE OFFICE SPACE? That sometimes things are simply out of my control. PUREWOW.COM

A SHORE THING Surf photographer Jeff Divine is bringing his visions of ocean scenes to dry land via a collaboration with Soludos beach shoes. “Soludos remind me of the ‘70s, when surfers were traveling the world and would bring new fashion back to California,” says the SoCal native. Soludos founder Nick Brown is a longtime fan of Divine’s: “His images capture surfing in a really authentic way,” says the shoemaker.

“The vivid colors and exotic locales made Jeff’s photos perfect for our shoes.”

A PALATABLE DUO

One SF firm approaches hospitality design from the inside out.

The job of upgrading the interiors of not one but two Four Seasons properties on the Hawaiian island of Lanai did not faze Paletteur’s David Lasker and Gino Castaña, though it had its daunting aspects. “We were challenged to complete a lobby renovation in eight weeks for the hotel at Manele Bay,” explains Lasker. “Normally, that will take a year or more.” Transforming the hotels (all told, five restaurants, two lobbies, a spa and 13 penthouse suites) for Larry Ellison, who owns the island, in record time solidified their reputation. With Castaña concentrating on the color palette and materials and Lasker on the space plan and architecture, the duo’s local work includes the Mark Hopkins’s Nob Hill Club (seen below). “Our mantra is to create a sense of place and tell a story that is inspired by the history, art and culture unique to a locale,” says Lasker.

TWO MICHELIN-STARRED CHEFS FROM NEW YORK CITY VENTURE SOUTH TO SHOWCASE THEIR CULINARY CAPABILITIES

OSTERIA MORINI Chef Michael White has opened Osteria Morini at the Lumber Shed in the Navy Yard, and already it‘s catered events at the White House. Under the direction of executive chef Matt Adler, the restaurant serves homey Italian dishes and is beloved for pasta, like the crab, sea urchin, basil and Calabrian-chili bucatini and the baked ricotta gnocchi with duck ragu and escarole. Adriatic-style seafood soup, roast chicken and braised short ribs round out the entrees at this loft-like waterfront space. “The food movement has expanded recently, and we wanted to be part of it,” says White. “It feels like D.C. waited for this type of venue for a long time.”

DBGB Located at CityCenterDC in Penn Quarter, DBGB is a lively neighborhood boîte from chef Daniel Boulud and executive chef Ed Scarpone. Designed by Boulud collaborator Thomas Schlesser and his firm, Design Bureaux, the decor features mirrored walls, brown leather booths and wooden bistro tables. “I’ve always thought about opening a restaurant in D.C., being that it was the first place I lived and worked in the U.S.,” says Boulud. “This space gave us the chance to be part of a new wave in the downtown neighborhood.” So far, the most popular dishes have been classics like coq au vin, trout and house-made boudin blanc sausages. 931 H STREET NW; DBGB.COM

To enjoy Loudoun County, Virginia’s thriving wine and liquor scene, look no further than Purcellville distillery Catoctin Creek, founded by chemical engineer Becky Harris and her project-manager husband, Scott Harris. “Scott likes to say that 20 years of government contracting taught him a great love of drinking,” jokes Becky. The first Loudoun distillery to open legally since Prohibition now produces best-sellers like the smooth Roundstone Rye and Watershed Gin and draws 10,000 visitors annually to its tasting room. This fall, the brand will release its first straight rye whisky, as well as an apple brandy.

Famous Last Words FOR YANKEES GRE AT JORGE POSADA ,

THIS MOT TO HAS PROVEN TO BE A HOME RUN W RI T T EN BY F R A N C E S D O D D S

Capitals in the middle of words are a sign of defiance and rebellion.

He doesn’t dot his i’s. This shows that he’s at one moment extremely detailed but at another decides it’s his prerogative not to be.

We see deliberate positioning of words and letters.

He’s careful about self-expression.

W

hen Jorge Posada was a boy growing up in Puerto Rico, he could only imagine one future for himself: “It was always baseball,” says the legendary slugger.

The son of a Cuban refugee, Posada never took the attainment of his dream for granted. “At the old Yankee stadium, we had a sign with this DiMaggio quote over the passage from the clubhouse to the dugout,” he remembers. “We all used to touch it before a game, and I would say it in my head every time I played there. It was true—we were lucky to be wearing pinstripes.”

There is a tightness in his signature.

The letters are compressed. He’s intense about what he does.

The Yankees were glad to have him, too.

This summer the team is commemorating Posada’s 17-season career by retiring his number, 20, making him the last Yankee to ever wear it, a fact he calls “unbelievable.”

Of course, a career like his owes just as much to hard work as it does to luck. According to graphologist Annette Poizner, Posada’s handwriting suggests he still holds the belief that he’s been extraordinarily fortunate, and is thus avidly aware of his self-presentation.

“Look at the clear and careful spacing,” she says. “Every letter is carefully articulated.

Someone else might write more naturalisti-

cally, understanding that the whole point is to get a handwriting sample. But for him, he’s aware that this is a showcase. There will always be a self-consciousness.”

What Posada’s handwriting doesn’t reveal, the man himself does in his forthcoming memoir, The Journey Home: My Life in Pinstripes. And what an odyssey it’s been.

“I keep going back to that fi rst day I got to put on the uniform and sit in the dugout,” Posada recalls. “Nobody was in the stands; nobody was on the field. I was there by myself, sitting in the dugout crying because I had accomplished my childhood dream.”
