been a part of Amy’s ritual since she was a young girl. In 1990 she included a few special jackets in her tapestry exhibit at the Vered Gallery. From there, another glorious adventure began, and in 1999 Amy’s Couture Collection joined Bergdorf’s; Amy is known as the “Goddess Couture.” Her clothes will be on display at the Dan’s Papers 50th Anniversary Party. Indeed, together Amy and Monte have created an enormous world of beauty, inspiration, incite and love for all to share. As Monte says, “We create for others what we love best to do for ourselves.”

The beautiful cocktail book, Paradise Found, in which East Hampton writer Rose Slivka wrote the forward, still sells well since it appeared in the Guild Hall Gift Shop in 1995. With over 500 densely layered collages, they transform base materials into the “gold of art, transcendence, and, ultimately, self-illumination.” It is no wonder that Amy was a recipient of the distinguished National Endowment for the Arts.

Today, Monte is working on two new books, The Enchanted Birthday and Thirty-Three Ways to Tell Your Future. Yet in this eclectic, busy household, where they both have their own studio, much, if not all of their endeavors are combined and watched by their nine-year old cat, Zane. “He rules our lives,” laughs Monte. “He’s smart and he’s psychic, too. Writing a book about Zane will be the hardest thing I’ve ever done,” Monte revealed. With his collection of 45 top selling books, published with the principal publishing companies, he is also the resident psychic for Jim Cramer’s popular financial website, TheStreet.com, where he predicts with uncanny accuracy. Amy and Monte appear regularly on FOX’s “The Strategy Room,” and have licensed six of their interactive personal guidance systems to my Lifetime.com. Their personal and impressive website is TheEnchantedWorld.com. Designing and making clothes for herself has
