EDITOR’S LETTER

Clockwise from top left: Lin-Manuel Miranda, far right, in Hamilton; Ward McAllister; Ernest Hemingway and his cat, Cristobal; Hamptons summer fun.

WARD MCCALLISTER would have been a skilled master of social media. “Double-checking the #400 with @MysticRose!” (MysticRose is the name of Caroline Astor’s account because he set it up on her behalf and used his pet name for her. Had she been able to pick her own handle, it would obviously have been @THE_MrsAstor.) He would run a blog posting unflattering pictures of the Vanderbilts called NotOurKindDear.com. Mr. “Make-a-Lister” would have been overjoyed to have a go on all the modern platforms people use nowadays to wield social power. Back in 1892, all he had was the New York Times, yet still, by handing them the list of the 400 people “of the highest set,” he made history. From the 400 founder to a Founding Father, this year saw the most interest in Alexander Hamilton since Aaron Burr wanted to see him regarding a matter of honor. A musical about Hamilton has risen to ludicrous heights of popularity—“the Broadway show you can’t get a ticket to,” as it is currently known—which, in turn, has led to a revival in fascination for 22 QUEST

the first United States Secretary of the Treasury. New York City was central to Hamilton’s life, and his impact is still seen around the city, sometimes in surprising places (like the New York Post). What’s more, the country can turn to Hamilton’s wisdom in face of this election year. “In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men,” he wrote, “the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place, oblige it to control itself.” u

the term “The 400” a long time ago, when I was a kid growing up in Massachusetts. It was a common expression that ordinary people used to refer to someone who was “well fixed” financially and tended to act as if they were “above it all”—with the “all” meaning the rest of us. In other words: snobs of some kind. It was such a common expression that even newly immigrated individuals to this country heard it often enough to adapt it to their personal references. I had a friend whose mother had immigrated to this country from Eastern Europe, who got the numbers confused: “Who do you think they are, the hundred and four?” As a young boy, I never knew about any Mrs. Astor, let alone the one who lived in 19th-century New York: Caroline Astor. (Though, it is unlikely that most Americans of that era had ever heard of her either.) But her list of social exclusivity—“The 400”— nevertheless resonated with people when describing those who were financially privileged. I can’t think of another individual whose personal choices of whom she would socialize with would eventually became an iconic reference in the American parlance. I don’t doubt that Mrs. Astor had any idea that her “guest

list” would become part of the American idiom. The first Quest “400” list ran 22 years ago and its essence was inspired by Mrs. Astor’s list. We first called it the “new” 400 (for obvious reasons). And while Mrs. Astor’s list was said to be limited to the number of individuals she could fit in the ballroom of her brownstone mansion on 34th Street and Fifth Avenue (which is where the Empire State Building stands today), our Quest list was based entirely on who we considered (generally) the most socializing individuals in the city at that time. On both lists—Mrs. Astor’s and ours—the number of individuals was not precisely 400. Mrs. Astor’s list, in fact, contained only 369 names. And ours? A lot more. It was Mrs. Astor’s amanuensis, Ward 26 QUEST

McAllister, who had rounded it off to a larger, even number because it sounded better. McAllister had a modern marketing man’s attitude about publicity: make it easy to remember. What Mrs. Astor’s list did represent authentically was “who” was “who” in the world of New York society in the Gilded Age. Its importance historically was sociological. It was created at a time after the end of the Civil War, when New York was becoming a major financial and manufacturing city, not only in this country but in the world. In a very real way, it created the idea of celebrity that blossomed and flourished in 20th-century America and beyond. Years after Caroline Astor had gone to meet her maker, in the hey-day of Prohibition in this country, a man named

Maury Paul (who was writing under the nom de plume of “Cholly Knickerbocker” for William Randolph Hearst’s newspapers) coined the term “Café Society.” He recognized the diversity that speakeasies and illegal booze had created in our social world: a rearranging of social relationships, not unlike the happenings in our times. The “old money” family members were mixing with the hoi polloi as well as actors, artists, writers, and such—but all over a glass of bubbly or booze. Society would never be the same again. Nevertheless, the members of the world of society associated with Mrs. Astor remained entrenched at the top of the pecking order because, generally speaking, their heritage possessed the financial power to influence the politics and policies, foreign and domestic,

of this country. It was a world of rules, decorum, mores, and folkways inherited generally from the British and European aristocracies that came before. But our social behavior has now changed dramatically to the point that, in this new century, much of “what was” has disappeared. What has remained is the aura—really, the memory—of a way of life that is still attributed to the upper classes, or what we used to call “society”—despite its disappearance from our contemporary world, social or otherwise. Where it was once a world that required agreement, it has become a world that requires technology for any kind of agreement. I was reminded of these changes very clearly in a book: As It Was: A Memoir (Prospecta Press), which was published late last year by Robert M.

D AV I D PAT R I C K C O L U M B I A Pennoyer. It is clearly and simply an almost Zen-like story of a man’s life. Pennoyer, who is now in his 92nd year, was born and brought up in New York (Glen Cove in Long Island, to be exact). It was a privileged existence that was and still is associated with great wealth and its place in society. On his mother’s side, he is directly descended from J. Pierpont Morgan and J.P. Morgan, Jr.—his great-grandfather and grandfather, respectively. The Morgan family had been in international banking from the mid-19th century, beginning with Junius Spencer Morgan, great-great-grandfather of Pennoyer. As It Was: A Memoir documents the way of

life for a family of their means and lifestyle in America. Pennoyer, the author, was born on April 9, 1925, along with his twin sister Kay Pennoyer—the middle two of six—in the third-floor nursery of his grandfather Morgan’s house on Madison Avenue and 37th Street, which is now part of the Morgan Library & Museum. They were the second and third children of his parents, Frances Tracy Morgan and Paul Pennoyer. His parents had married in June 1917 in an Episcopal church that his maternal grandfather helped found in Locust Valley. (Pennoyer’s grandfather, J.P. “Jack” Morgan, Jr., was a deacon of the church and also

a stickler for time. The sermon had to be 12 minutes. He always wore his watch. Everybody knew his issue and didn’t want to upset him.) He writes: “Just before my father went off to (the First World) war, Grandpa Morgan commissioned the architectural firm of Goodwin, Bullard, and Woolsey to build ‘Round Bush,’ a picturesque English-style country house of brick, stucco, and slate. The house featured at least twenty-three rooms, in addition to a seven-car garage, six-stall stable, pig sty, chicken pen, tennis court, squash court, and fifty-foot swimming pool. It sat on a hill overlooking more than fifty acres of fields,

woods, and pasture. There were abundant flower gardens and several acres of vegetable gardens. It was named after a hamlet near my grandfather’s estate north of London, Wall Hall, where my mother grew up. It had a perfectly round English boxwood bush at the center of the circular drive near the front entrance.” “Round Bush” was staffed with a cook, an upstairs maid, two kitchen maids; an English butler (a houseman “who did everything from making ice cream to shoveling coal, winding the clocks, an doubling as my father’s valet”); a Scottish grounds superintendent who lived in the gatehouse; two Sicilian gardeners; a French

groom who lived in the stable, and French governess for the three older children, as well as an Irish nanny who took care of all of the children through the nursery years and then stayed on “through the decades to help my sisters with their young ones.” There were two chauffeurs, an Englishman and a Scot, although the author’s mother liked to drive her children to school and pick up their father at the railroad station when he returned from work at the end of the day. After the children’s supper in the nursery on the second floor, Nanny would take Robert and his two sisters into her room where they would gather around her Zenith radio at 7:30 p.m. and listen to the nightly broadcast of “The 30 QUEST

Return with us now to the thrilling days of yesteryear when from out of the past come the thundering hoof beats of the great horse Silver. The Lone Ranger rides again! The program always ended with the Lone Ranger catching the bad guys and riding off into the sunset shouting, “High-ho Silver, away!” to the sound of galloping hooves and Gioachino Rossini’s “William Tell Overture.” Robert’s father loved cars.

Several times a year, “at the crack of dawn,” Robert would awaken to a bloodcurdling scream when at the sty behind the stable, the gardeners Sal and Louis would “slit the throat of some unfortunate pig so that our family could have homegrown bacon.” The children’s lives were structured “with times set for play, naps, and being read out loud to from” Peter Rabbit books, Christopher Robin, Thornton Burgess, and The Wind in the Willows.

There were two donkeys hitched to a wagon to give the children rides, lots of rabbits in a pen, and black Labradors to follow them around. “Whenever we got what was called ‘out of hand,’” their mother reminded them that “children should be seen and not heard.” Their mother never raised her voice to her children. A good person never raised her voice in anger, never criticized another, and “never took advantage of the homage that people paid her.” She set an example for her children and “evoked in her servants

D AV I D PAT R I C K C O L U M B I A and in those of (her son’s) contemporaries a “reverence normally reserved for royalty.” She taught her children to be honest, to be modest, and to show respect for their elders and for servants. She also taught them to be thrifty. On their eighth birthdays, they were given a little black notebook in which they were instructed to enter on the left page the sum of their weekly allowance (which started at a dime) and, on the right page, each expenditure. Mrs. Pennoyer did not follow fashion. “She hung onto dresses for years” and never wore high heels but instead wore “ground-hugger shoes even when she went out for

the evening.” She attended the horse shows and the dog shows but wore the same clothes year after year that provoked commentary in the press. Knickerbocker chided her for dressing down: When I encountered Mrs. Pennoyer, the former Frances T. Morgan, at one of those numerous outdoor events on Long Island the other afternoon, she was anything but fashionably attired. Her costume consisted of an old brown skirt and slip on sweater and a brown felt hat that looked as if it had seen several seasons of good, hard wear. If only she would take more interest in things sartorial… Knickerbocker wrote about it more than once, even

mocking: Mrs. Paul Pennoyer, whose daughter Virginia was showing, wore, unless my eyes deceived me, the same blue cheviot costume she had on at the same event last year—or could Frances have liked it so well, she had a duplicate made this year? Her son recalled that her daily routine included “arranging” the flowers brought in from the garden by Banks, and writing out menus for the cook because “she never learned how to prepare even the simplest meal, and I do not recall ever seeing her entering a kitchen.” The children often were taken to visit Grandpa’s 250acre estate nearby. “A long,

linden-bordered driveway led to the 47-room Georgian brick manor house, complete with 18 fireplaces and sixteen bathrooms, built in 1908. There were broad, shaded lawns, a dairy farm with prizewinning Guernsey and Jersey cows, and chicken, and terraces, greenhouses and gardens,” as well as a 12-car garage, a tool and harness shop, a mile of private beach, and a long dock leading to the float where in spring and summer the grandfather Morgan (plus uncles and the author’s father) would board the “sleek-hulled, diesel-powered Navette for the trip down Long Island Sound to the East River and Wall Street”.

Investing used to be a whole lot simpler. Traditionally, if stocks were outperforming, bonds were not. Therefore, as long as your portfolio had a healthy mix of each, you’d be poised to prosper. This isn’t necessarily the case anymore, as dealing with finances has grown more complicated in recent years. When the financial crisis hit the U.S., the recessionary effects were felt around the world. Today, the U.S. economy is still recovering, and central banks in Europe and Japan grapple with ways to reinvigorate their economies. The crisis taught us that portfolios composed solely of stocks and bonds (for instance, large caps and government debt) were vulnerable to loss. Having a truly diversified portfolio, with a robust blend of investments across and within different asset classes – including public and private investments – offers the best chance at reaping the highest possible return while managing volatility. So what’s an investor to do? Develop a plan. To get where you want to go, you need a map with clear goals and a carefully designed route

based on proven portfolio construction principles. A plan will also provide ongoing discipline to maintain a steady hand amid volatile markets or asset class bubbles. A DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO EARNED

No cards were allowed on the property. They took the train to Raquette Lake, where they were met by carriages pulled by Belgian horses. In the 1930s, the children were taken to England regularly to stay for weeks at a time at their grandfather’s 2,000-acre estate in Hertfordshire. The family story at the beginning of Pennoyer’s memoir fascinated me, as the imaginative kid who grew up in far, far less luxury and privilege (although I had a lovely childhood in recalling it).

was born in the mid-1920s; I was born during the Second World War. Life changed for all peoples during that time. However, what impressed me and kept me reading was how entirely egalitarian our world was, at least in intent. There was agreement, just like the lessons Mrs. Pennoyer gave to her children. In her way she was tough, and I’m sure that her toughness was received in a variety of personalities. But it seems all of her lessons about conduct were based on one thing: respect. That seems to be the “code word” for that world, which we now define as society. It wasn’t true of everyone, of course, but the code of behavior for all people living then

was, potentially, respect—including for oneself. This is, of course, an ideal, but it is practical also. As It Was: A Memoir traces a lifetime of living under those rules or agreements. The modesty his mother taught him is evident but only in the style of his recollections. He grew up to serve in the war and in the battle of Iwo Jima, as well as in Washington under President Dwight D. Eisenhower. He and his wife had six children and brought them up here in Manhattan, and the world into which they were born (her grandfather founded Chubb) has lifted over a period of decades. It’s a trip to sanity. And society, as someone else had known it.

More history to consider. Best-selling author Barbara Goldsmith died on Sunday, June 26. She was 85 and had been ailing after taking a fall in Palm Beach a few months ago before, in her hospital recovery, catching an infection of some kind. I was surprised at her age only because, although I knew she was older than I, she had an energy and an intellect that was not so much youthful but fresh, mature, and dynamic. We met at someone’s house or some function about 25 years ago. I had written something she liked and she sought me out to tell me. After that, she made a point of inviting me to join her at certain events and also at her private dinners.

D AV I D PAT R I C K C O L U M B I A I’d first read her in 1980, when she published Little Gloria Happy At Last. I was in awe not only with the immense details that she was able to convey with simplicity and honest sympathy, but also with an emotional quality that made her biography a page-turner. She was very prolific as a journalist, biographer, novelist, and television and film scriptwriter. She was the kind of person that draws many of us to New York to meet, to know, to learn from. She was intelligent, ambitious, curious, enterprising, hardworking, very focused—

all those things—and always striving. Like the rest of us, she no doubt had her foibles (although I saw none). She was always looking forward, looking ahead. And she was a worker. I did conclude, as I got to know her, that she was one of those girls, one of those women, who had had a strong and effective father—one whom she held in high regard and adored. I knew very little about him. His name was Joseph Lubin. He was an American-born child of immigrant parents at the beginning of the 20th century on the Lower East Side.

The Lubins were poor and the youngster Joe did what others boys of his background did: they found jobs to earn whatever they could. The boy was ambitious; he worked day jobs and went to school at night for eight years. He finally became an accountant. His precision as an accountant brought him clients who advanced his career. In short, he became a very successful business man, executive, and entrepreneur— very rich, very philanthropic, and a caring father to his two daughters, Barbara and her sister. I recount that brief history

of Lubin because his daughter, Barbara, exhibited similar qualities in her profession as well as in her philanthropic pursuits—which were numerous, often original, and far thinking. She was her father’s daughter, as they say. And I’d bet he was very proud of her ability to work hard and earn her achievements. As a young woman, she went to Wellesley College. Afterward, she pursued a career in journalism writing some splashy and informative accounts of celebrities for the early New York magazine, when it was in its heyday. She

married film director Frank Perry and lived briefly in Hollywood, but she returned to New York, her native town. Aside from the wealth her father left her, she was a financially successful writer as well. She had an important art collection that she began acquiring early. It filled her Park Avenue apartment elegantly. She lived well, with a house in East Hampton and the place in Palm Beach. And she worked. I always thought of Barbara as being in the middle of writing a book, because she was. Books were her life. One important aspect of her philanthropy was a huge project she funded in restoring old books deposited in libraries, especially the New York Public Library. The upshot of this project, in addition to the value of restoring sometimes centuries-old texts, was discovering ways to prepare paper used in printing books to 38 QUEST

be more durable against time and temperature. I had originally intended to write only a few words about Barbara Goldsmith, for as long as I knew her we were mainly social friends: we enjoyed our lunch and dinner conversations about our thoughts and ideas. I had great respect for her literary achievements and she blessed me with her support and encouragement. More history recalled. I went to lunch with Brooke Hayward, who celebrated her 79th birthday on Tuesday, July 5. Brooke lives in Litchfield County, quite happily after years in the city. She still comes to town every few weeks for the dentist and the doctor and an occasional lunch at Michael’s. Brooke was born in 1937, the daughter of Margaret Sullavan, star of the Broadway stage and movies. Sullavan had been married four times:

Jacqueline Weld and Christopher Mason

to director William Wyler, actor Henry Fonda, agent/producer Leland Hayward, and actor Kenneth Wagg. Brooke’s father, Leland Hayward, had married four times (including twice to the first wife, Lola Gibb), then to Margaret Sullavan, then to Slim Hawks (later Slim Keith), and finally to Pamela Churchill (later Pamela Harriman)—who would one day go on to be President Bill Clinton’s ambassador to France. Brooke was the eldest of three in her parents’ marriage, with her sister, Bridget Hayward, and her brother, Bill Hayward. She is the only child of the Hayward-Sullavan marriage to survive—her mother, Margaret, as well as her sister and her brother all took their own lives at different times. From a marrying family, Brooke had three husbands: Michael Thomas, the novelist/social commentator; Den-

nis Hopper, the actor; and Peter Duchin, the musician and orchestra leader. She also has three children, a daughter and two sons. All survive. I recount this information, a part of which Brooke set out long ago in a best-selling memoir about growing up with that mother and father. The book was called Haywire and it was later made into a television mini-series. It was a Hollywood tell-all that broke new ground for its frankness and candor in unraveling the lives of complicated people in the world’s most glamorous industry. This is all a lead up to a brief anecdote from our conversation at lunch. Somehow, our chat had led to the subject of Pamela Harriman (or, Pamela Digby Churchill Hayward Harriman). Harriman is always an interesting subject if you should ever get into a conversation about her with

There are all kinds of anecdotes that patch together a complicated, driven, powerfully controlling woman who slept her way to the top as well as happily played mistress or mistress-inthe-making to several rich and powerful men. Brooke came to hate Pamela, and for good reason (although that is another story). I can’t recall how she came up in our conversation but I was telling Brooke about the first and only time I met the woman back in 1991. I had heard about her affairs with the rich and famous men of the world when I was introduced to her at Kitty Hart’s apartment on a wintry Saturday late morning.

Pamela had come up from Washington, D.C., to go to the ballet and had stayed over night with her friend. Ours was a very brief meeting, inconsequential even. It was remembered distinctly because I personally experienced her legendary charm in that brief but profound moment. It left me… Charmed. But that’s another story also. My memory tripped Brooke’s memory of the first time she met Pamela. It was summer day in 1960. Leland Hayward had left his wife Slim and, although not divorced, was living with Pamela in a house in Bedford that he’d rented from Irene Selznick, an old family friend (and the

younger daughter of Louis B. Mayer as well as the ex-wife of David Selznick). Brooke was, at the time, dating a man named Jones Harris, the son of actress Ruth Gordon and Broadway producer Jed Harris. They went up to Bedford that day to visit Brooke’s father—and his new amour, Pamela. Brooke knew very little about her except, of course, that she had been married to Winston Churchill’s only son Randolph. When they arrived at the Selznick house, an MGM-perfect, rambling clapboard with shutters replica of a New England cottage (but more sprawling) that was surrounded by forests and bordered by

the Mianus River which flows through the town, Brooke was told by a member of the staff that her father and Pamela were out by the pool on the other side of the house. When they got out to the pool, a big pool, there was Leland in his bathing suit sunning himself on a lounge. And across the pool, on the diving board, there was Pamela standing with a touch of Venus, entirely nude, almost modesty abandoned, “the skin whiter than your shirt” (the shirt being the one I was wearing at lunch). “White, white… And she had red hair, reddish auburn, and the brightest red between her legs... And big red nipples on

Later, when Brooke asked her father about it, he told her that Pamela often did it.

I spent a good deal of the weekend finishing: The Mistresses of Cliveden: Three Centuries of Scandal, Power, and Intrigue by Natalie Livingstone. It could have been titled “The Mistresses of Cliveden: Politics and Carnal Knowledge for the Past Four Centuries in England.” It is a history of the house and the women who presided over the house since its first

building (it burned down twice) in 1688. It was commission by George Villiers, the 2nd Duke of Buckingham, born to the station, childhood, and (almost) lifelong friend of King Charles II.

Alexander Pope, the poet who moved in that society, wrote about it more than once—more an editorial comment on its creator.

The Top Doctor Is In by Castle Connolly Top Doctors Q: When it comes to cosmetic injections such as Botox and Xeomin or fillers like Juvaderm, Voluma, Belotero, and Radiesse, how do I know which one is right for me? A: The best first step that you can take is to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to help you decide what type of cosmetic injection is right for you. Cosmetic injections and fillers should help to get rid of wrinkles and deep folds. When these injections are done by an expert, the patient’s face should look refreshed; shape and emotion should be brightened and natural – not a “frozen face.” I believe that knowing how often and exactly how much volume should be strategically placed in the different parts of the face in combination with a deep understanding of facial anatomy are key factors in this expertise. Proper evaluation of the strength and size of the facial muscles in relation to the depth and visibility of the wrinkle are also careful points to consider. This customized approach allows for amazing outcomes and happy patients.

It was a wise move financially, but for a long time he was all eyes for others, including: the Countess of Shrewsbury, Anna Maria Talbot (hence Pope’s reference to Shrewsbury—whom many referred to as a “whore”). Eventually, Buckingham killed the Earl of Shrewsbury in a duel (swords), which was still popular back then. After, he came out into the open about his affair with Anna Maria. Although Buckingham had a wife, Anna Maria became the first mistress of Cliveden. It was a noble threesome, as it were. In more ways than one. Not unlike Razzle Dazzle: The Battle For Broadway (which I’d read just before this book), The Mistresses of Cliveden is potentially a grand maxi/mini-series because it is five portraits of five remarkable women over a period of more than three centuries, all of whom were chatelaine of this great house.

The Duke, himself, eventually fell on very unfortunate and hard times, dying in poverty. Again, Pope provided an editorial opinion, describing his grace’s end: In the worst inn’s room, with mat half-hung, The floors of plaster, and the walls of dung, On once a flock bed, but repaired with straw, With tape-tied curtains, never meant to draw, The George and Garter dangling from that bed Where tawdry yellow strove with dirty red, Great Villiers lies—alas!

It was there during the 1930s that the subject of the “Cliveden Set” came out as a group thought to be trying to appease Adolf Hitler. Nancy Langhorne Astor, an American from Virginia and the first woman to hold a seat in the British House of Commons, was regarded as the leader of that Cliveden Set. The Second World War changed all that for everyone, including those who wanted to appease Der Führer.

In the early 1960s, still under the ownership of the Astors (this time Bill Astor, son of Nancy and Waldorf Astor) there was a major political/sex scandal all around the Cliveden swimming pool. It became known in the press as the Profumo Affair. John Profumo, the government’s Secretary of State for War, was alleged to have had an affair with an 18-year-old girl named Christine Keeler, who also slept with a Soviet military officer. National security and all that produced a field day for the press—which

led to the public account of their first meeting poolside at Cliveden, introduced by a well-known osteopath named Stephen Ward. Ward was the procurer in the private, laterto-be-public drama, and evidently had a list of girls who liked to have fun…with older, well-fixed men of rank and power, and others too. Livingstone takes us from the concept of building the house in the late 17th century to a cast of characters that included both King Charles I and King Charles II, Queen Anne, Sarah Churchill, Duch-

ess of Marlborough, James II, King William III and Mary II and right up through the Queen Elizabeth II. Cliveden, you can see via Livingstone’s portraits of its mistresses, had a vibe, an energy, that continued right on through to its last private residents, the Astors—it lasted three centuries. One of those similarities was the kind of woman who lived there and defined it. It was a house that all of the aforementioned royals and many more knew well as friends and frequent guests. u

ON SUNDAY, JULY 17TH, 2016,

THE GIVING BACK FOUNDATION

held it's first ever mindfulness event called The Ledgewood Retreat: Mindfulness, Happiness, Movement and Meditation. The idea was to carve out a time for busy individuals to get away from the hustle and bustle and learn from top yoga and meditation experts how to practice mindfulness, movement and of course meditation! The day began with a warm welcome by founder Meera Gandhi, breakfast and refreshments by the pool. The day continued with some light yoga and meditation by Inga Benson. After uplifting everyone's energy, Miriam Belov discussed the importance of Chakras in daily life. The participants then took a break to mingle and enjoy a nice Indian lunch under the 400 year oak oak trees on Ledgewood Estate, followed by a short presentation of Martha Fiennes's new film project in the Library. The afternoon continued with body love movement by Jules Bakshi and shaman drumming with Kiran Gandhi, of Madame Gandhi music label. Kiran performed Moon in the Sky – much to everyone’s delight! The day ended with dessert and gifts such as The Giving Candle and The Giving Back table book and Giving Back Film. It was a huge success!! Over 75 people of all ages including Meera’s parents and her three children Kiran, Kanika and Kabir attended the event. The day maintained an intimate feel with everyone seemingly becoming friends by the end. Every person left with a sense of peace and calm and a smile on their face. A special thanks to retreat director Kesi Bailer and her team Nicole D’Souza, Sayrah Rana and Jeffrey Fass.

“STAY JOYOUS ON THIS BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY OF LIFE” - WAS THE MANTRA THAT EVOLVED FROM THE DAY!

“We are to the universe only as much as we give back to it.” Meera Gandhi, CEO & Founder

76 QUEST

H A R RY B E N S O N

IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY JANUARY 12, 1969. The Orange Bowl stadium in Miami for Super Bowl III. The underdog American Football League (AFL) New York Jets, led by quarterback Joe Namath, upset all the sports writers’ predictions by defeating the National Football League (NFL) champion Baltimore Colts by a score of 16 to 7. Three days before the game, the young quarterback from the University of Alabama gained notoriety by brashly guaranteeing that the underdog Jets would win the Super Bowl. And Joe made good on his promise. Namath was named Most Valuable Player and the beginning of an iconic career was launched. “Broadway Joe” became a superstar and was mobbed by fans wherever he went, not only in New York City, but all over America. Joe was easy-going and easy to like—as was his business manager and lawyer, Jimmy Walsh, who asked me to photograph Joe over the years in a series of ads (including one which caused a sensation when Joe put 78 QUEST

on a pair of Hanes panty hose). After his knee injuries caused him to retire from football, Joe guest-starred on all the popular television shows, including “The Dean Martin Show,” and “Laugh In,” and appeared in several films. The billiards room in his Upper East side apartment, shown here, is from my 1972 LIFE magazine photo essay. Very protective of his private life, Jimmy Walsh helped arrange the photo session with the very private Joe who had not let his apartment be photographed before. Recently, I photographed the still-handsome and affable Joe at his Florida home with his beautiful daughter, Jessica, and her adorable young daughter, Jemma. It was most amusing to see the one-time most eligible bachelor in the world called “Grandpa” by Jemma—and he loved it! Joe and I reminisced about the old days. Joe speed-dialed several of the Jets whom I had known, and we had a laugh. It was a good day, one to remember. ◆

Lee atop Traveler; F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Tender is the Night; Raymond Chandler’s The Big Sleep; the Chrysler Building. 80 QUEST

TA K I AS A CHILD, the only list I had ever heard of was the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted. Then, a lady who wrote about fashion, Eugenia Sheppard I believe, made a list of the ten best-dressed women of New York, and the dam was broken. Everyone started making lists. Lists appeared listing the best and worst lists, and the craze even got to Europe, where the Almanach de Gotha codifies and names the true aristocracy but does not list them in order of importance. So, this being the 400 Issue, I will offer Quest readers a few lists of my own choosing—at times listing as many as ten, others as few as two. (It is very hard to find more than two extremely disgusting couples.) The two most disgusting couples in New York are: Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, and Jay-Z and Beyoncé. The ten sexiest women during my lifetime are: Ava Gardner, Jane Greer, Cyd Charisse, Betty Grable, Keira Knightley, Dorothy Paley, Mimi d’Arcangues, Anne Marie de Rougemont, Victoire de Ganay, and Kiki Wittgenstein. The five worst journalists in America: William Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, Max Boot, Nicholas Kristof, and Charles Blow. The five greatest American presidents: George Washington, Calvin Coolidge, Richard Nixon, Dwight Eisenhower, and Ronald Reagan. The ten greatest military men: Robert E. Lee, Hasso von Manteuffel, George Patton, Heinz Guderian, Erwin Rommel, Stonewall Jackson, Michel Ney, Leonidas of Sparta, and Napoleon Bonaparte. The five greatest living American statesmen: Henry Kissinger, Henry Kissinger, Henry Kissinger, Henry Kissinger, and Henry Kissinger. The ten greatest characters in a novel: Dick Diver in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s

Tender Is The Night; Jake Barnes in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises; Prince Andrei in Leo Tolstoy’s War & Peace; Pierre in the same; Raskolnikov in Fyodor Dostoyevski’s Crime & Punishment; Steven Rojack in Norman Mailer’s An American Dream; Holden Caulfield in J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher In the Rye; Captain Rinaldi in Ernest Hemingway’s A Farewell To Arms; Howard Roark in Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead; and Philip Marlowe in Raymond Chandler’s The Big Sleep. The ten best male movie actors of all time: Burt Lancaster, William Holden, John Wayne, Robert Mitchum, Tyrone Power, Montgomery Clift, Mickey Rooney, William Powell, Gary Cooper, and Clark Gable. The two most useless institutions ever: the United Nations and the European Union. The three greatest horses in history: Napoleon’s Marengo, Robert E. Lee’s Traveler, and Roy Rogers’ Trigger. The ten most fun restaurantnightclubs of all time in New York: El Morocco, The Stork Club, Nell’s, Elaine’s, Le Cirque, Mortimer’s, Billy Reed’s Little Club, 21, Toots Shor’s, and the Persian Room. The ten greatest New York Yankees: Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Billy Martin, Allie Reynolds, Whitey Ford, Yogi Berra, Casey Stengel, Hank Bauer, Don Mattingly, and Thurman Munson. The two best New York newspapers ever: the New York Herald Tribune and the New York Post. The worst: the New York Times. The five most beautiful New York buildings: Rockefeller Center, the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, the Plaza Hotel, the Dakota. The most obnoxious man in a city with close to 8 million obnoxious people: Bernie Madoff. u For more Taki, visit takimag.com. AUGUST 2016 81

CUCKOO FOR LE COUCOU

IT'S NOT EVERY American chef who makes his debut with a French restaurant—and a Parisian restaurant at that. But when you’re as good as Chicago-born Daniel Rose, you’re able to bypass the hurdle of being an American in the epicenter of grande cuisine: Paris. Some 10 years ago, Rose opened the 16-seat restaurant Spring in the heart of the French capital, and though skill had never eluded him before, Spring sprang him to the center of the world’s culinary stage. Last year, he opened a second Parisian restaurant, La Bourse et La Vie. For 2016, a third Parisian boîte is on the way, and—enfin!—New York has been anointed as the city for Rose’s American debut, with the highly anticipated Le Coucou, which recently opened in conjunction with Stephen 88 QUEST

Starr of the Starr Restaurants enterprise. Le Coucou marks Rose and Starr’s take on a classic French restaurant set here in SoHo, at 138 Lafayette Street. The menu is a streamlined vision of Rose’s personal belief in simple yet refined French cuisine, which means you’ll see him paying tribute to classic French technique and dishes, but with a distinctly local perspective. For starters, the terrine de veau might be as French as you can get, but the added flavor of pickled milkweed—an indigenously American herbal perennial—gives it a unique New World flair. The last time I saw quenelles on a menu in New York was when La Côte Basque was still in business, but these rare Gallic concoctions of creamed fish bound with eggs into a rugby

CANTEENS ball–shaped mold are back at Le Coucou, made here with pike and served over sauce américaine, which in this case means lobster sauce. You’ll feel deep in the French Dordogne when you spot rabbit on the menu, but be sure to note it’s tout le lapin—or the whole rabbit. The canard et cerises, a main dish of duck, cherries, and black olives, calls to mind something you might imagine at a Hudson Valley inn operated by an expat French chef. Rose and Starr have indulged their every whim and fantasy with the atmosphere—no stone has been left unturned, no expense spared. The design firm Roman and Williams conceived the space to match the purity of the cuisine. It’s a clean, uplifting ambiance; the main dining room is a box within a box, with sets of

different heights, similar to the Hagia Sophia, to create interest. Aimed lights go further to create minimal glare on diners (merci, Monsieur Descottes) and on the restaurant staff. Stained white oak tables with linen tablecloths are intended to provide a canvas for the presentation of the meal. Speaking of canvases, a hand-painted mural inspired by the works of 18th-century French landscape artist Hubert Robert covers the ceiling and walls with foliage and a verdant palette that invokes nature. The space is meant to call to mind an atelier or loft, but with fine linens you might choose for your home. An open kitchen features a custom European Athanor cooking suite of green porcelainized steel with brass fittings and a custom hood

triple-hung glass windows forming a secondary façade within the space. At the room’s crown, a procession of pewtered-steel chandeliers hang from the exposed concrete, illuminating the room with a glow from hand-blown glass shades. Hervé Descottes, of the renowned lighting firm L’Observatoire International, whose projects include everything from the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris to 2 World Trade Center in New York, was called in to calibrate the lighting. He and Artemis Papadatou, who led the project for L’Observatoire, shared with me that the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul was the inspiration: in response to the high ceilings, Descottes wanted to use chandeliers to bring the light level down into the restaurant. The fixtures were suspended at

to match. Descottes installed a light under the decorative hood to make the chef’s table a focal point, and it most certainly is: anyone with even the slightest home-design or culinary fetish won’t be able to sleep at night; instead, they’ll be bouncing in dreams of the gorgeous green ensemble. As if the food weren’t enough, you’ll be back to ogle the accouterments, sans doute. u This page, clockwise from top left: Canard et cerises; the dining room; the enviable Athanor kitchen; chiboust à la vanille; the front bar; chef and restaurateur Daniel Rose; a settee at the bar.

HARRY WINSTON’S SPARKLING WHIMSY BY DANIEL CAPPELLO IT SHOULD COME as little surprise that Harry Winston, widely recognized as the “King of Diamonds” and “Jeweler to the Stars,” had an eye for stones even from an early age. The story has it that a 12-year-old Winston happened to spot a genuine two-carat emerald among a pile of junk jewelry at a local pawnshop. Knowing what he had found, Winston purchased for 25 cents what the shop owner believed was a worthless piece of costume jewelry; two days later, he went on to sell it for $800. As the son of a small jewelry shop owner, Winston was introduced to jewelry from a very early age. Still, he always demonstrated a natural eye and strong intuition for evaluating the quality and potential of gemstones. By the age of 15, he would go to work for his father’s small Los Angeles jewelry shop and, 92 QUEST

Winston made a name for himself early on by purchasing entire jewelry collections from the most prominent estate sales of the day and by removing the gemstones from their dated settings in order to re-cut and set them into more contemporary settings. This unconventional purchasing practice launched him into the spotlight, but it was that natural prowess demonstrated by the 12-year-old emerald-spotting child that carried his craft

to new heights of fine-jewelry design—and a new standard in the industry. Another story in the house’s lore has it that the hallmark Winston design was born during a snowy December night in the 1940s. Winston, inspired by the way the fresh winter’s snow glistened on a decorative holly wreath hanging on the door of his Scarsdale residence, realized the similarities between the beauty of nature and diamonds. In the same way the intertwining leaves—not the branches— created the sculptured shape of the wreath, Winston decided that diamonds, rather than their settings, should dictate the design of his jewels. This inspiration led Winston to his now famous “clustering” technique, a method by which diamonds of different cuts and sizes are grouped together and set in delicate platinum, transforming them into three-dimensional sculptures. Today, the Winston Cluster is one of the house’s most coveted motifs, and has been incorporated into the designs of so many famous pieces and entire collections themselves—from the breathtaking Wreath necklace to the Harry Winston Lily Cluster, Lotus Cluster, and Secret Cluster collections. This month, the diamond-driven “cluster” style is being given new life once again in the form of the freshly minted Sparkling Cluster collection—a stunning new collection that is meant to memorialize Mr. Winston’s enduring commitment to making brilliant celebrations shine even brighter with magnificent diamonds.

THE LATE HARRY BERTOIA might be

best known as the designer of the “Diamond” chair, a masterpiece of welded steel that gives the impression of sculpted netting, but he was, in fact, a prolific and wide-ranging artist who made jewelry, prints, sculpture, and more. The Museum of Art and Design (MAD) currently has two exhibitions honoring this Renaissance man, “Atmosphere for Enjoyment: Harry Bertoia’s Environment for Sound," which explores his work with sound sculptures, and “Bent, Cast, & Forged,” a display of the jewelry he created. “The Harry Bertoia exhibitions are a perfect fit for the museum as they highlight an artist who is perceived as both designer and an artist—and with roots in disciplines associated with the studio craft movement,” said MAD’s William and Mildred Lasdon Chief Curator Shannon R. Stratton. “The shows give insight into

the bookends of Bertoia’s career—his very earliest explorations in jewelry and then his last work in sound, which was truly a culmination of a lifetime of inquiry into both metal as a material for sculpture and the possibilities of interpreting the immaterial through the material.” The title “Bent, Cast, & Forged” reveals exactly how Bertoia liked to make his jewelry. Having moved from Italy to Detroit at the age of 15, he studied art and design and learned the skill of handmade jewelry making. He later attended the Cranbrook Academy of Art, where the collection usually resides, currently on loan to MAD. The compilation of jewelry and monotype prints uncloaks the origins of his creative vision. His experimental approach to form, dimension, and material give a glimpse to the nascent talent of a man who would go on to be a pioneer of the American Studio Jewelry movement and a master of elevating fashionable

adornment to objets d’art. Going from his first artistic expressions to the culmination of his career, “Atmosphere for Enjoyment: Harry Bertoia’s Environment for Sound,” explores Bertoia’s sounding or tonal sculptures—sculptures using tall vertical rods that would produce auditory effects meant to connect the viewer/listener to the environment. In 1968, he set up an 18th-century stone barn to house a selection of these sound sculptures, which still stands today. MAD has recreated the experience of the “Sonambient Barn” by designing the exhibit to produce the same tonal and atmospheric effect as if the visitor were in the barn itself. Bertoia was attuned to the physical-epheremal connection in life. “Man is not important. Humanity is what counts, to which, I feel I have given my contribution,” he said shortly before his death in 1978. u

Kitty Miller Remembered “Hang out the ham,” she used to say, “and they’ll all come running.” BY DAVID PATRICK COLUMBIA

he had blue hair in her old age. And a personality that was rarely softer than a dull roar. Tact was not one of her attributes. She would say anything that came to mind. And she was a snob, so she would also say anything about anybody who came to mind. One man, who liked her very much, said she could be one of the rudest people he’d ever known. Neither was beauty an attribute. She was lantern jawed, had a mole on her nose, and one eye that went wandering off in its own direction. However, there were no complaints from her. She was not dowdy or ashamed of her looks but approached the situation practically. For she also had a highly developed aesthetic, always wore diamond earrings, and almost as frequently, diamond bracelets or brooches or necklaces. Thus producing the dazzling sparkle that, along with her bravado, disarmed everybody and offset everything else. She had great taste, according to even her detractors (and there were many). As she wasn’t good-looking, she knew she had to be beautifully dressed. “She was not a pacesetter,” recalled Eleanor Lambert, the doyenne of American fashion publicists. “She had an aristocratic style, was well brought up, and knew how to dress with discretion, but was noticeably fashionable.” She was also a well known and lavish hostess. From the 1930s through the mid’70s, the world came to her table in New

York, London, Palm Beach, Majorca, or any other place she set down. A staff of 30, in total, looked after her and her constant flow of guests. “Hang out the ham,” she used to say, “and they’ll all come running.” People got the message. She was born Kathryn Bache, four years before the turn of the century, the second daughter of international investment banker Jules Bache and Florence Scheftel, a member of a prominent Manhattan family. The Baches were part of the now-legendary “Our Crowd” Jews. Jules, known as Julie to his friends and associates, looked the part, almost like the caricature banker from the Monopoly board game. White-haired and moustached, portly, a natty dresser, always with a cigar, he was a very outgoing, jolly fellow. He accumulated—much through the auspices of Joseph Duveen—a fantastic art collection which now rests in the Metropolitan Museum. He was also famous among the social set for having an excellent butler named Gilmore. Gilmore became legend (and rich) from listening in on Bache’s conversations for stock tips, as well as robbing his boss blind through kickbacks received from the grocers and vendors who supplied the Bache household. It was said that Mr. Bache was aware of the situation and once even offered Gilmore a raise, inquiring as to how much it would take to stop the skimming that was going on. “Mr. Bache, you couldn’t afford it,”

PROFILE

was Gilmore’s terse answer. So things continued business as usual. In 1929, when she was 33 and therefore, by the standards of the day, on the predictable trail to spinsterhood, Kitty Bache married the Broadway producer Gilbert Miller. Miller, according to one who knew him well, was “a marvelous raconteur, a great disgusting fellow, who was quite fat and ate like a pig.” Theirs was the only dinner table in town where the butler came around with “thirds” for “dear Gilbert,” as his wife referred to him. The son of Henry Miller, a late 19th–century theatrical manager who owned his own theatre (which still bears his name on West 44th Street) he produced only imports from London and many of our now immortal stars, such as Laurence Olivier and Noel Coward, came to perform on the American stage under his aegis. Kitty was a hostess. That’s how she was known. Hostesses by definition in her day were very rich, lived in elaborate apartments or houses, were “best dressed,” gave parties, and did—in the words of one who remembers that time well—“absolutely nothing else.” Mona (Mrs. Harrison) Williams was another. So were Thelma Chrysler Foy and Millicent Hearst. They entertained at home with dinners and dances and were New York society’s bridge between the Gilded Age and modern times. It was an era when everyone dressed to the nines. Men wore black tie to a party and white tie and tails to opening nights at the theatre or the opera. Women wore gowns from Hattie Carnegie, Sophie of Saks, Mainbocher, and the Paris couturiers. People made a great effort to look awfully good, and succeeded. Thus they danced and drank (often heavily) and smoked their way through the best of the times and the worst of times, including the Great Depression. In the early years of the Millers’ marriage they lived with Papa. A lot of hostesses entertained very well. Kitty, however, had something extra. Gilbert Miller was theatre. The Millers could and did draw the stage stars who were then the great celebrities of the world. At Kitty Miller’s, Katherine Cornell, Cole Porter, Ina Claire, Ethel Merman, the

Lunts, Gertrude Lawrence, and George Gershwin rubbed elbows with the titans of finance and industry and the denizens of the Social Register. Like a producer herself, Kitty knew how to enchant her guests with comfort, luxury, and surprise. She had the best: food, silver, china, flowers, and service. Everybody wanted to be there. The Millers traveled to London frequently because of his business, and took a house a number 40 Hill Street as well as a place with swimming pool and tennis courts—Drunswick Manor—in Surrey where they spent weekends (and which

to be far more attractive and original in the way they dressed and set their tables. But again, Kitty brought out the stars, not only from London but from America. The Millers could take people to opening nights at the theatre and entertain them brilliantly at supper. It became smart to know her. Finally, when the Duke of Kent came to dine, her position was established for good. The duke, the handsome younger brother of the King, was considered her greatest social triumph, and both Millers were very impressed by this achievement. “Do you know that the Duke calls

Her maid, chef, butler, and his valet accompanied them wherever they went. Soon she was as renowned in London for the lavish entertaining and the wonderful people she could bring together comfortably. In those early days, she had stiff competition from Mrs. Dudley Ward, Audrey Bouverie, and Wallis Simpson, all of whom were very much part of the Prince of Wales set. Furthermore, these women were known

Kitty?” Gilbert Miller would ask a newcomer. “No,” would be the response. “He calls her Kitty,” the producer would proudly inform the ignorant guest. London became as important to the Millers as New York, if not more so. Every late June or early July, Kitty would give a party honoring Gilbert in the River Room at the Savoy Hotel. It became the great dinner dance of the season and everybody who was anybody, AUGUST 2016 99

“My father never denied me anything,” she’d retort. “My husband never denied me. I have no children to leave it to and why should I deny myself?” including the Royals, wanted to be there. Everybody tried to get invited and she knew it. That’s when she would say certain people couldn’t come, which made other people want to go more. Those who were invited were told “I expect a hot meal (in return) or you won’t be invited again.” People got the message. Hostesses issuing invitations to a dinner which included Kitty might say, “this is the hot meal for Kitty.” As her stock rose, her position in society solidifying, Kitty became more inimitably Kitty, which to some people was synonymous with the word “bitch.” “She could be very entertaining when she talked,” recalled an old friend. “She spoke beautiful French and could tell you stories about all the dressmakers and all the people in Paris society too. But she was very critical of people. She could say remarkable, disparaging things and the world always gets back: Kitty said this, Kitty said that.” Many had taken to caller Mitty Killer behind her back. Interestingly her feuds —almost always caused by her outspokenness—were often followed by a reconciliation, also initiated by her. “After all,” commented one frequent visitor, “Kitty was in society and society lives off gossip. Who’s ever heard of any gossip that anyone wanted to listen to that was a happy story?” Jules Bache died in 1944, leaving behind a huge trust equally divided between Kitty and her older sister Hazel in a holding company named Wenonah, his grand summer camp on Upper Saranac Lake in the Adirondacks. The Millers by then had settled into their own large apartment, decorated by Billy Baldwin at 550 Park Avenue. Their new home had lots of color—dark reds, a great deal of velvet, satin, brocade, and chintz. The furniture was mainly French and comfort was the guide. Bache’s art collection went to the Met except for 100 QUEST

Goya’s Red Boy, which for years had awed guests in the banker’s mansion where it was hung at the top of the staircase leading to the library. Kitty allegedly had seen the picture first at Duveen’s. After her father died, she arranged to share it with the museum until her death, and so it hung in her living room at “550,” whenever she was in residence. The death of her father brought her greater wealth and her spending habits escalated commensurately. On herself. Once, giving a dinner dance in Palm Beach, she couldn’t find the type of chair she wanted for the tables so she had ballroom chairs flown down from New York. Redecorating one of her dining rooms, she learned that the wallpaper she’d ordered (at $900 a yard) wouldn’t be ready for several months. She spent as much on a cheaper wallpaper and then had it glazed to give the color the right tone. She also spent money on clothes, clothes, clothes. She wore lots of scarlet, bright reds, and navy blue. The trustees who watched over her income would complain tactfully but incessantly. She’d go to the opening of a favorite designer and buy almost the entire collection and then report gleefully to a friend, “Oh, I’ve been so nasty, they’re going to kill me.” Trustees would plead with her and she’d laugh. “My father never denied me anything,” she’d retort. “My husband never denied me. I have no children to leave it to and so why should I deny myself?” Habitually she spent well over her annual income which amounted to seven figures (or nine figures in today’s currency). By the 1950s, Mrs. Gilbert Miller had become one of the great dowagers of society, right up there with the Duchess of Windsor and Elsie Woodward. Her New Year’s Eve party became one of the most sought after invitations in New York. It was run as precisely as a Gilbert Miller play. Fifty were invited for ten o’clock. Dinner was served at 10:30. After-dinner

guests arrived at 11:30. Champagne was passed; “Happy New Year” at midnight. Guests were very carefully selected and the list often included Diana and Reed Vreeland, the Winston Guess, Serge Obolensky, Cordelia Biddle Robertson, Astors, Vanderbilts, and Whitneys; stars from the theatre and Hollywood—even Greta Garbo. A Hungarian orchestra in bright scarlet uniforms and gold epaulets played softly. After dinner, a hundred people were invited to join the party. The dining room would be cleared, little round tables were set up, and a huge buffet would appear for supper. The orchestra picked up and the living room and gallery would be opened up for dancing. The years passed but it never became stodgy. In the early 1960s when the Twist became the rage, she brought in Chubby Checker and the band from the Peppermint Lounge. By the time the New Year came in, practically everyone in 550 Park, including the staff, were twisting the night away. In 1959, Gilbert Miller died of cancer. As willful as she might have been, Kitty always towed the line for her husband. As a husband, he was a tyrant around the house. He could be kind and generous with his theatrical partners and stars but he was the kind of man who bullied people under him. Kitty could be subject to an earful and could return volleys. She’d scream and yell too. He was devoted to his business and deeply appreciated his wife’s contributions to his life (she chose all the costumes worn by the actors and actresses in his plays), but he was never especially amused by the “society” friends that came to their dinner table. It was said that he was a man who went around with a hundred dollar bill and a bunch of quarters in his pocket. “The hundred for a pretty girl he might see and think he could put a leg over on, and the quarters for tips.” Once, when asked why she put up with so much from her

difficult husband, she replied, “Because I’m too lazy to divorce him.” She was also too clever not to know that being Mrs. Gilbert Miller had made the difference, a vast difference, in a world which, for a woman like her, required a husband. “She was imposing and demanded respect and careful treatment,” recalled a friend who added, “you did not take that lightly. If you did, you were a masochist.” After the death of her husband, she spent more time in London where she continued to entertain and to bring on the rising stars and the bright young things. One very exciting moment occurred one morning: thieves entered the house on Hill Street and made their way to her bedroom, held a gun to her head, and demanded she deliver up her jewels. All the while pressing on a secret alarm that was connected to Scotland Yard, she coolly instructed her by-now-famous maid Therese to unlock the safe and comply. Jewels in hand, one of the burglars, having just held a gun to his victim’s head, asked to kiss her cheek in thanks. After complying to this second request, she cracked: “Now I’ll have to wash my face!” The thieves made it to the street only to be met, chased, and apprehended by Scotland Yard. The jewels, however, were never recovered. In the 1970s, her trustees made her leave London for tax reasons. Hill Street was sold, as was Drunswick and the house in Majorca. She bought a house in Mill Neck, Long Island, as a replacement. Age did not mellow her out-spokenness and, people’s objections aside, few ever turned down an invitation to dine. Many still continued to pay back with the “hot meal for Kitty.” She continued her extravagant ways and kept herself on the “best-dressed” list. Every year, come January, she’d leave New York

for Palm Beach, Palm Springs (where Frank Sinatra was a friend), or Acapulco to stay with Merle Oberon. Now in her seventies, many of her friends had passed on but she added new, younger people to her list such as Aileen Mehle (“Suzy”), Kenneth Jay Lane (jewelry designer-purveyor), Truman Capote, and CZ Guest. She could and would still deliver a withering salvo at some hapless and hopeless victim but always responded with a good laugh when it came from someone who said it like it is. Once in London at a wedding, she emerged from the church to find her car was parked closer to the door than Princess Margaret’s. “How did you manage that?” she asked her beloved, devoted chauffeur Tony. “That’s easy, ma’am. I just told ’em I had a very drunken old lady to pick up.” On October 15, 1979, Kitty Miller died. She’d owed her trust several million from the years of overspending and the lawyers decided to sell everything in her estate to recoup the debt, including her sheets, towels, pillowcases, and even framed snapshots of grandnieces and grandnephews who were known only to the family. The public who knew her responded by buying it all. Kenny Lane, attending the preview with a friend, amazed by the minutiae on sale, passed a box of handbags and cracked to a friend, “who would want these?” Then on second thought, he remarked, “of course, knowing Kitty, the clasps are probably all gold.” Remembering the moment years later he said, “and they probably were. Either that or platinum.” u AUGUST 2016 101

They transacted $1.4 billion in Hamptons properties and were involved in five of the top 15 sales, including the highest priced transaction: a $57.3M oceanfront property in East Hampton Village. The firm also opened an elegant 5,200-square-foot East Hampton office and was involved in 40 percent of all transactions from Southampton to Montauk. Through the first six months of 2016, Hamptons real estate sales were down 21 percent, but sales for Saunders & Associates were up 7.1 percent. “We’re capturing market share in a down market,” explains Saunders. “The reason why is that we continue to innovate our strategies for getting properties seen and sold.” Saunders has identified three current trends: First, there are

historic homes that have been renovated with care. (Saunders & Associates represents the two best examples in the Hamptons: a Southampton Village home by Marco Roberts and a Sag Harbor home by famed designer Steven Gambrel.) Saunders says, “I admire the passion required and the skill to execute projects where you take an older historic home and update it and create a perfect vision. That doesn’t happen by accident. That’s not a formula. It’s not an unemotional endeavor, but the product of passion and risktaking. It takes tremendous skill, determination, and capital.” Second, there are new condominiums, which are resonating with aging baby boomers who are downsizing—including Harbor’s Edge in Sag Harbor. Saunders says, “These are well-imagined condos on the waterfront with luxury amenities. They’re very appealing for folks who are looking to simplify their lives. Ten years ago, condos were almost a punch line out here, but today there’s a substantial new inventory of condos and they’ve been quite well received out here and embraced by people.” Third, there is new with a capital N. Saunders says, “The real, defined trend at this point is new, which is trumping location as the primary criterion of purchasers in many cases. Homes that are five years old are now considered older homes. People want new with the latest amenities and latest technology.” When asked about the key to his success, Saunders replies, “It’s about collaborating on a daily basis with like-minded and passionate people to serve our agents, clients and customers.” u For more information, contact Andrew Saunders (president of Saunders & Associates) at 631.537.9482 or as@saunders.com.

400 W R I T T E N B Y L I LY H O A G L A N D FOR OVER TWO DECADES, Quest has unveiled its annual list of the people who comprise society with a capital “S.” Even those bemoaning the death of that institution for years and years acknowledge the importance of our tradition (case in point: most such gripers would be outraged to be left out). The “400” still holds the cachet of showing what society was, is, and continues to evolve into. Even in the most proper families, it’s the exception to the “birth, marriage, and death” rule of when your name should appear in print. Amidst today’s era of constant self-promotion, the need for a true standard-bearer is more important than ever. Which is not to say that this list is rigid or inflexible—far from it. As culture, values, and people change, so too must the definition of society and its members. Back in Mrs. Astor’s day, the benchmarks of pedigree were absolute; today, New 112 QUEST

York’s ballroom dance floors are far larger and more diverse. As such, the “400” is a living document, dynamic and adaptive to amendments and revisions, and each year brings fresh faces to the crowd. And Society is hardly limited to the city; New York may be the seat of power, but there are those watering holes where everyone goes to escape—only to find their friends there too. This year, we illustrated The List with images of their favorite retreats. Whether slaloming in Gstaad or clamming on the Vineyard, these are the vacation spots, summer homes, and country houses that last and pass through generations. Sinatra thought that making it in New York meant he could make it anywhere, but there’s making it in New York—and then there’s making it to the “400.” u

Broadway Play Inspired by the 2004 biography Alexander Hamilton by historian Ron Chernow, Lin-Manuel Mirandaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s musical Hamilton has enjoyed rapturous acclaim by fans and critics alike. The musical made its Off-Broadway debut at The Public Theater in February 2015, where its engagement was sold out. The show moved to Broadway in August 2015 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. This year, Hamilton was nominated for a record-setting 16 Tony Awards and won 11 of them, including Best Musical. It was also awarded the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. 132 QUEST

HAMILTON, MAN ABOUT TOWN BY DANIEL CAPPELLO

GEORGE WASHINGTON may very well be the father of America, but when it comes to our home city, Alexander Hamilton will always reign supreme. New Yorkers have long held a soft spot and deep admiration for Hamilton, and it doesn’t hurt that the actor, composer, and writer Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tony Award–winning Hamilton has revolutionized our image of the Revolutionary War figurehead. Today our perception of Hamilton may be informed less by a crisp ten-dollar bill and more by a rapping Miranda himself, but one thing remains the same: Hamilton, in many regards, will always be the quintessential, if not original, New Yorker himself—proof positive of the Sinatra mantra, “If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere.” After all, he wasn’t as aristocratic as some of his fellow founding fathers; he was a bastard, orphan immigrant from the British West Indies who arrived in America at the age of 15 and built a life from scratch in New York City, where he lived and died. He laid claim to this city and loved it, which is why, if you take a look around, he seems to be memorialized just about everywhere, starting uptown and moving on down. Any visitor hugging close to Central Park’s East Drive at 83rd Street near the Metropolitan Museum of Art is sure to spot the hulking Carl H. Conrads granite statue of Hamilton, which was donated to the city in 1880 by his grandson John C. Hamilton. But his image looms large elsewhere, both on and off the beaten path. Here, we take a look around the city to spot Hamilton’s enduring legacy in his adopted hometown— from the bright lights of Broadway to an Ivy League institution, from the tip of the island to a daily must-read newspaper we all still keep at our fingertips. u

Columbia After moving from the British West Indies to New York in 1773, Hamilton entered Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s College (inset below), now Columbia College of Columbia University, in the fall of 1774, where he pursued studies in mathematics, wrote pamphlets in support of the Continental Congress, and gave speeches as a regent of Columbia from 1784 to 1787, and as a trustee from 1787 until his death in 1804. A 1908 sculpture of Alexander Hamilton by William Ordway Partridge (inset above) stands outside Hamilton Hall on the Columbia campus. As seen here, the bronze cast of the statue underwent maintenance in 1953. 134 QUEST

Hamilton’s Home Hamilton had architect John McComb, Jr., design his “country” home in upper Manhattan (near modern-day Hamilton Heights in Harlem). The Federal-style house was named The Grange after his grandfather’s estate in Scotland. A centennial commemoration of Hamilton’s death (the program cover is pictured above) was held at the original site of The Grange. The home passed through several owners and locations. Following its second relocation by the National Park Foundation, this National Historic Landmark re-opened to the public in 2011 near St. Nicholas Park.

The New York Post If you live in New York, you probably also live by the covers of the New York Post. Though the rousing morning headlines might not have always been so big, they might have been just as catchy. The Post is the 13th-oldest and seventh-most-widely circulated newspaper in the United States. Hamilton, a federalist, established the paper in 1801, and it became a respected broadsheet in the 19th century, under the title New York Evening Post. Today’s version is published in tabloid format. In 1976, Rupert Murdoch bought the Post for $30.5 million. Since 1993, the Post has been owned by News Corporation and its successor, News Corp, which had previously owned it from 1976 to 1988.

Father of Banking Though Hamilton was never president, his legacy

the ten-dollar bill (and the five-dollar stamp from the 1900s, above right). He was named by George Washington as the first Secretary of the Treasury, and his most urgent problem was figuring out ways to pay off the country’s war debts. Hamilton proposed a national bank, which Congress approved in 1791 (see one of the checks John Jacob Astor wrote from the bank above, at left). Hamilton also implemented a federal system based on customs duties and excise taxes. From 1799 to 1815, the U.S. Custom House (inset at right) was located south of Bowling Green in Government House, originally intended to be the executive mansion for George Washington, which ended up being the place where federal customs duties on imported goods were collected in New York City. Today the U.S. Custom House, located at 1 Bowling Green, is officially named in honor of the first Secretary of the Treasury—the Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House—after a 1990 bill sponsored by New York Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan.

He asked to be brought back to New York City and died the next day, July 12, 1804, at the home of his friend William Bayard. He received final rites from the rector of Trinity Church (pictured here as it stands today, at 75 Broadway), where he and his family were members. His funeral was held at Trinity on Saturday, July 14, 1804, and he was buried in the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s graveyard, near his oldest son Philip, who also happened to be killed several years earlier on the same spot where his father was mortally wounded.

CONFESSIONS OF A 21ST-CENTURY AVIATRIX BY DAVID PATRICK COLUMBIA I’VE KNOWN Topsy Taylor for about 20 years. We met through mutual friends who were working to raise funds for City Harvest. She is a New York girl with a real New York ancestral history. She’s one of those individuals who is naturally friendly and agreeable, but also one who expresses her opinions fairly and clearly. She’d never bring it up but she has an “old New York” background. Her great-great-great grandfather, Moses Taylor, was a 19th-century New York businessman and banker who, through his father, had a close 138 QUEST

business relationship with the first John Jacob Astor. Moses, who was born in 1806, was a very prosperous sugar importer and business leader. He vastly expanded his investments into the First National City Bank (with a controlling interest) as well as into railroads and local gas companies that eventually became (through mergers) what is known as Con Edison. When he died in 1882, he left a fortune of more than $1 billion (in today’s dollars). That fortune was distributed over the following decades to several prominent New York families of the 20th century.

page: Topsy Taylor, at the helm.

None of this information is worn by Topsy as relevant to her definition of herself. She has the accent and the bearing that speak “uppah clahass” New York—one of the last mid-Atlantic accents. It is the result, no doubt, of her upbringing and schooling. It is the kind of accent and bearing that might easily lead one to believe that they are in the presence of a big snob—with a capital “B.” She is also, since her youth, a very worldly woman who has traveled frequently and widely in the thick of the jet set. She is also one of the nicest, kindest, and most directly honest women in New York. I wouldn’t know anything about her ancestral background if I hadn’t researched it. What does seem relevant is that the lady has naturally inherited her entrepreneurial instincts. When she was seven or eight, Topsy had her first plane ride. (This was in 1948 in Newport, Rhode Island.) There was a re-

tired army pilot man named Bob Wood who had a small plane that he flew and chartered out to people in the community. On that first plane ride, Topsy was allowed to sit in the cockpit next to the pilot. It was a first; nobody in the family had ever been in an airplane. Her sole memory of that first experience was looking down at the land below and seeing how it lay with the towns and houses—neat and tidy with the streets in squares. The child was fascinated. As a child, she grew up mainly in South Carolina and in Rhode Island in the summertime. After that initial family flight, her father would charter a small Cessna to take them back and forth. Her parents also used Bob Wood to go to Saratoga, New York, for the racing season; to Canada for fishing; or even for visiting friends a few hundred miles away. The way some young girls are attracted to horses, Topsy was attracted to the technology of motor vehicles. She was 11 the first time she drove a car in South Carolina. She loved it. When she was 14, she got her first driver’s license. That, of course, was in AUGUST 2016 139

140 QUEST

Friends who heard about it were interested in chartering Topsy’s helicopter to get back and forth to Southampton or Newport (or another destination). Topsy—who never flew without a co-pilot—asked John to help. As more and more people became interested in the “service” (getting a ride versus driving to a destination or another airport), John became the chief pilot. They began to do more and more business. John was able to get a certificate for air-taxi operators and he and Topsy partnered to create Helicopter Flight Services, which operates out of Manhattan. The air-taxi service also began filling requests for aerial sightseeing over Manhattan. As they got busier and busier, they acquired a second helicopter and then a third helicopter. Today, Helicopter Flight Service owns a fleet of Bell 407s plus a Bell 427, producing gross revenues in the eight figures. John Kjekstad has more than 18,000 hours of combined helicopter and fixed-wing experience. He also earned an Airline Transport Rating, which is the most esteemed in ratings. Plus, he is a certified flight instructor and certified instrument instructor for helicopters. Although Topsy is one of the few women in aviation doing business, she’s unimpressed. Her main focus these days is safety, integrity, and ensuring that Helicopter Flight Services is #1 in the helicopter business. She reckons: “I’ve always done things that fascinated me, whether with someone or on my own. It’s very important for a person to do something that’s just important to them.” Good for the customers too, I’d say. u For more information, contact Helicopter Flight Services at 212.355.0801 or heliny.com.

the mid-1950s; the rules have changed since then. At 20, she soloed in a Piper Cub for the first time in Camden, South Carolina. She had had a fear of flying—despite loving it—and she decided she’d be “better off sitting up front to get through the fear of it.” On that flight, she had to take off, come around, land, and then do it again. “In those days at that airport, after you soloed successfully,” she told me, “they’d cut off a piece of the tail of your shirt and put it on the wall with your name on it. Driving home, I was speechless. I felt as if I’d climbed Mount Everest.” Two years later, in 1963, Topsy was working for Vogue. In the summertime, she would fly back and forth from New York to Newport on weekends. “A group of six of us would charter, and I always sat up with the pilot and do the radio work and that kind of stuff,” she explained. “That way, I got to learn to speak to LaGuardia as we were arriving and departing.” Always curious, in 1974, she got her private pilot certificate in a Beechcraft Baron 58, flying out of LaGuardia airport and all over the Northeast. In 1985, Topsy started taking lessons at Long Island MacArthur Airport to get her commercial pilot certificate for helicopters. Her flight instructor was a man named John Kjekstad. She loved it so much that, the next year, she bought a helicopter: a Bell 206 JetRanger (which was painted red). She started flying her friends back and forth between New York and the Hamptons or Newport. When her daughter, Lisa McFadden, entered the St. Paul’s School, Topsy would fly her and Pauline Boardman’s daughter Samantha to Concord, New Hampshire—while dropping Pauline’s daughter Serena at the Brooks School in North Andover, Massachusetts.
