Person To Person

In the early days of television (it was seen in black and white) Edward R. Murrow presented 2 compelling TV shows: See It Now and Person To Person.  

Flash forward to today, as we emerge from the confines of the pandemic and seek in person experiences.  

As you know, Gotham is aware of your Zoom fatigue and endeavoring to schedule as many face to face, in person, events as possible, eg, Mets/Yankee game on 6/14.

This past Tuesday, I experienced my first such event, at sundown (pictured), on the rooftop of the Hard Rock Hotel.  

Gothamites were there in ample numbers, with drinks in hand, and the networking interaction was enthusiastic and productive.  

One of the most prominent things I heard (and said) was "You look better in person than on the screen!"

To call it a successful experience is an understatement!

And it was in color :)

Over the pandemic I found the ability to use Zoom not only expanded my networking experience, it was more efficient. It did not replace the in person experience which I am now enjoying once again. I appreciate that Gotham offers both and with variety - business, social and educational.

The Pandemic changed the whole scope of our social interaction. In person and in color is welcome any time.

You make it fun just writing about it for our enjoyment, and though the print is black on a white page, the color is in your words. Thank you, Fred, for the smiles and for being who you are.

As we move forward, I think it's important to strike a balance between virtual and in-person events. While virtual events have their advantages, nothing beats the energy and excitement of being in the same room with like-minded individuals.

I'm looking forward to more in-person events!

Fun being in a great setting with old friends and new ones! Gotham sets the stage!
