Last night Jesse and I had the pleasure of attending the Winter Ball to benefit The School of American Ballet. As a seasoned subscriber to The ABT, I love the idea of supporting young artists. When you’re attending this type of event, you never know what to expect. Last night the energy and enthusiasm that went into the spectacular advanced student performance nearly blew the roof off Lincoln Center. With gracious hosts Diana DiMenna, Julia Koch, Betsy Pitts, and the fabulous Coco Kopelman, we knew it was going to be good. Van Cleef & Arpels provided the bling, allowing everyone the opportunity to shine. -Joe
