On a Wednesday evening three weeks ago (November 17th), a group of prominent young New Yorkers gathered at Marquee for a cocktail party and fundraiser for Judge Leslie Crocker Snyder. The 225 attending were there to support Judge Snyder, who intends to challenge the 85-year-old incumbent District Attorney Robert Morgenthau, in the September 2005 primary. This was the second large event the Young New Yorkers for Snyder Committee has held in the last 6 months, raising in the process more than $100,000 to support the Judge in her efforts.

Those attending heard a vigorous and impassioned speech focused on innovative ideas and reforms for the DA's office. In the crowd: Nicholas Acquavella, Allison and Jay Aston, Chris Barish, Chandler Bass, Sarah Boardman, Lilly Bunn, Maja Byrnes, John Castle, Stephanie Ercklentz, Abby Field, Kristin Fisher, Moira Forbes, Nicole Hanley, Josiah Hornblower, Harry LeFrak, Peter Lehrman, Eleanor Lembo, Sasha Leviant, Elizabeth Meigher, Whitney Miller, Tinsley and Topper Mortimer, Nick Papanicolau, Ogden Phipps, Elizabeth Pyne, Ted Roosevelt, Alejandro Santo Domingo, Teddy Schwarzman, Mortimer Singer, and Donald Trump, Jr.
L. to r.: Donnie Young, Dr. Synder, Lindsay Tomenson, Liz Eaton, and friend; Doug Snyder speaking.

The Neue Galerie (which means New Gallery) is one of the newest and finest public art galleries in New York. It was conceived by two men who had a close friendship over a period of three decades – an art dealer named Serge Sabarsky and Ronald Lauder, the businessman/ philanthropist who also collected art. When Sabarsky died in 1996, Mr. Lauder carried on the vision they shared and created the Neue Galerie as a tribute to his friend.

The museum, which is located on 86th Street and Fifth Avenue in a building designed and completed by Carrere & Hastings in 1914 for private use (it was later the final home of Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt III), is devoted to early 20th century German and Austrian art and design, especially exploring the relationship between the fine arts and the decorative arts of the period of Vienna, circa 1900 and the art of Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Oskar Kokoschlka, Richard Gersil and Alfred Kubin and the decorative arts of such well-known figures as Josef Hoffman, Koloman Moser and Dagobert Peche, as well as architects Dolf Loos, Joseph Urban and Otto Wagner.
