A lovely breakfast with the brilliant Jessica Kubzansky; June 2022 

Sweet catch-up at Marco Polo with my pal Gregory Franklin 

Swell to have our dear friend Hershey Felder back in LA from Florence to appear in his Chopin… and to top that getting to bring along Michael Michetti and introduce two worldclass creative geniuses I couldn’t admire more

They like me! They really, REALLY like me! 

With Roger Q. Mason at the premiere of his LAVENDER MEN; August 2022

Who let an old man love his fanny.
His hair went away,
While his boyfriend went gray,
Which just proves that fate is uncanny.
