Back to your regularly scheduled tumbling.
Love a good bar.
In anticipation of the Bill Cunningham New York documentary at MoMa’s New Directors/New Films series - a few photos and history. A legend and pioneer of street style photography, I’ve been in awe during every encounter down to courting him via fax to attend events on behalf of former clients.
Ooh I can’t wait for this. I think anyone who has done PR for galas or any big event has a handful of Bill Cunningham stories. I can remember practically tackling a photographer at an event at the Mandarin Oriental when he tried to take Bill’s photo. There was also the one time at Carnegie Hall when someone (cough, me, cough) sent Bill off in the elevator by himself and all hell broke loose over whether something terrible might happen to him in between the ground floor and Rohatyn Room. The last thing you wanted was to make Mr. Cunningham unhappy. He was always very sweet to me, though.
He also lived down the street from me for 3 years, ensuring that I always thought twice about throwing on any old pair of jeans to take the dogs out.

It’s amazing how much six years feels like just yesterday and a lifetime ago, simultaneously.
In 2011, we were a whopping 25 people (which, coincidentally is the median age of both David and I at that time); an entire company that could fit (sort of) comfortably into one small conference room, count ¾ of its female employees on six feet, and offsite together in one house.
Now, we’re hundreds of people across multiple offices, about to go through an acquisition (again!) and I’m certainly no longer 26. So, while I wouldn’t change the last six years for anything, I know in my heart that it’s time for me to move on to the next adventure.
It’s impossible to sum up six plus years in one sappy tumblr post, so here are some of the greatest hits:
Thank you, Tumblr, for an incredible six years. It’s been a dream.
(One last time) Fuck Yeah!

I don’t think I have anything to add that would be 1/1,000,000th as impactful as the stories women have been sharing this week. But please count me as one man standing with you in this fight.
Today I made a $1 million donation to Planned Parenthood. I urge more men to speak up and contribute. Women don’t get pregnant alone, and we owe them much more than our silent support in the political fight ahead.
If you can, please donate here. Either way, you can take action across the country, online or in person.
