Lunch At Michael's: Summer Suave

Attention all aspiring powerbrokers and machers: forget the lazy days of summer. (Face it, the sun is never coming out again anyway). The crowd we spotted at Michael’s today all share at least one unshakeable belief: summer is for sissies! (Except of course on the weekends when appearances in the still happening Hamptons, bucolic towns of Connecticut or Columbia County and, if you’re lucky the Vineyard or coast of Maine, are still de rigueur.) Despite the energy zapping and mood killing dreary July weather, captains of industry and media like Ron Perelman, Howard Rubenstein and Time Inc’s editor-in-chief John Huey infused the room with some serious adrenaline.
