Big names with deep pockets came out for Michael Milken and his Prostate Cancer Foundation’s intimate dinner at DANIEL last week.
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was there, David Koch and wife Julia attended, as well as Mitchell Modell, Mira Tzur, Larry Leeds, Tom Lee, Marie Bernstein, Seth Bernstein, Bonnie Pfeifer Evans, Ted Virtue, Debra Black, Leon Black, Bob Barth, Nicole Frank, Cynthia Ott, James Coleman, Arik Kislin, Glenn Myles, Frederick Anderson, Charles Krusen, Kristen Krusen, Amy Hagner, Bill Hagner, Carol Mack, Earle Mack, Todd Boehly, Katie Boehly, Tony Minella, Sage Minella, Richard LeFrak and Izzy Englander.
Showbiz superstars Bernadette Peters and Matthew Morrison musically wowed the crowd, while DANIEL chef Daniel Boulud prepared mouth watering bites like lobster with avocado puree, that knocked our socks off.
During the evening live auctions raised more than $5M to fund 4 Challenge Awards – ground breaking research projects that will improve and provide better treatments for cancer patients, and Milken, a prostate cancer survivor who founded PCF, talked about some of the other research initiatives currently being funded.
