Palm Beach GEMS
CAPEHART
Since I live and work on the east end of West Palm Beach, I’m up and down Flagler Drive multiple times every day and keep tabs on the coastal neighborhoods—what’s being built, what’s being renovated, who’s moving in. During those forays, one house in Northwood Shores had captured my imagination for years, less for its grandeur than for its potential. Sometime last year, I started to notice changes: new Italian cypress being planted, terraces being built. Great, I thought: Someone with style is moving in. I was surprised (and not surprised) to learn, a few months later, that the new owners of that beautiful century-old house were fashion designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka. I’ve come to know Mark and James through various photo shoots over the years and have long admired them and their style. I must say, they have outdone themselves in this house. Though it was undeniably a project, they have breathed new life into every corner, inside and out. With their signature elegance and a dusting of glitz, they have managed to channel a glamorous European villa in the heart of West Palm Beach. Come inside Villa Iguana with us, by turning to “The Architects of Glamour” on page 108. Speaking of interesting people in town, this month we’re thrilled to introduce you to a prodigious acting talent in our midst. I first saw Nicole Elizabeth Berger on the screen during the drive-in premiere of the Mark Webber film The Place of No Words at the South Florida Fairgrounds. Not only was her camera presence remarkable, she was also sparkling with an energy that made it obvious she was going places. Getting to know her, I feel even more strongly that this young woman (she’s only 17!) has a bright future in the industry. And she’s incredibly intelligent and kind, to boot. Turn to page 100 for our fashion shoot and interview with Nicole, and learn why she’s a “Star on the Rise.” Enjoy the issue!

Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center
EXPANDS INNOVATIVE TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR PATIENTS By Diana Delgado
For Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Health System, achieving the National Cancer Institute (NCI) designation in 2019 was the beginning of a transformative chapter for the institution. While that achievement is certainly the pinnacle for an academic cancer center, Sylvester continues making strides in cancer research and care. Sylvester has focused on accelerating breakthrough advances in finding cures for cancer and expanding innovative treatment options for cancer patients in South Florida and beyond. Through new programs, recruitment of renowned physicians, and an influx of seed-funding, the center is poised to become one of the nation’s preeminent cancer centers. “Since becoming an NCI-designated cancer center, we have been able to attract even more world-class cancer researchers and physicians. We also have new therapies that are only available at NCI-designated cancer centers. These novel treatments are being delivered by experts, and so our game continues to elevate based on NCI designation, based on our success in terms of delivering patient outcomes, and based on our ability to deliver compassionate, state-of-the-art care,” said Stephen D. Nimer, M.D., director of Sylvester. DWOSKIN PROTON THERAPY CENTER
The Dwoskin Proton Therapy Center opened in September 2020 and is named after Steven Dwoskin for his generous gift to support cancer research at Sylvester and the new cutting-edge facility. This is the only proton treatment center in Florida located at an NCI-designated cancer center.

“This is going to make an immense difference for patients with cancer in South Florida. This will allow us to improve our chances of curing patients while reducing toxicities and side effects,” said Tejan Diwanji, M.D., co-director of Sylvester’s Proton Therapy program. In the hands of Sylvester’s team of experts, this cutting-edge equipment can be programmed to zero in on tumors. Radiation oncologists and medical physicists work together to design a patient’s individualized treatment plan. Treatment with the targeted stream of high-speed protons is painless for the patient and is often delivered over the course of several weeks. “Our team of experts and the clinical trials we are able to offer, because of our NCI designation, give us unmatched opportunities to make a difference – the Sylvester difference,” said Dr. Nimer. “Proton therapy is an important component of the innovative treatments available to our adult and pediatric cancer patients.” CLINICAL TRIALS AND NEW THERAPIES
Sylvester offers patients in South Florida access to clinical trials and investigational therapies available exclusively at NCIdesignated cancer centers. Sylvester conducts more clinical research than any other institution in South Florida and has a wide range of clinical trials. Sylvester has the only academic Phase 1 clinical trials program in South Florida. The goal of trials at this stage is to determine the safety, early evidence, and effectiveness of new treatments in patients with cancer.
Phase 1 trials may help develop new therapies and provide hope to patients who in many cases are running out of treatment options. “In Phase 1 clinical trials, it’s the first time a human being is receiving a medication. We have these trials at Sylvester. You can’t get some of these anywhere else in the United States, often you can’t get it anywhere else in the world. Only at Sylvester,” said Jonathan Trent, M.D., Ph.D., associate director of clinical research. Dr. Trent adds that these trials are having greater success than they did years ago because of the advent of precision medicine and the ability to understand what causes an individual’s cancer to develop and target that mechanism. At Sylvester, Next-Generation Sequencing is used to analyze a patient’s tumors for markers and mutations. That information can be used to find a treatment that’s the best match. The Molecular Tumor Board meets regularly to discuss challenging cases and determine if there are targeted therapies or investigational trials that could be beneficial, based on an individual’s tumor profile. Since its launch in 2016, the Sylvester Precision Medicine Initiative has provided late-stage cancer patients with recommendations and access to potentially life-extending treatments.

Finery FOR SALE Imagine a place where you can shop for an Andy Warhol painting, a Rolex watch, an Hermès bag, and a vintage Lamborghini all in one stop—and bring everything home with you the same day. Now imagine it’s in Palm Beach. Open your eyes: You’ve arrived at Sotheby’s at The Royal Poinciana Plaza. The lauded auction house’s newest gallery, which opened in November, showcases a swath of collecting categories—from fine art to jewelry, watches, and luxury cars—in a curated lifestyle setting

HAPPY HAVEN PBI: What led you to develop Haven Palm Beach? Kantis: Inspired to be home this season instead of department stores nationwide, I combined my experience in interior and jewelry design with my love of curating artisans and looked for a venue to pull a Julie Andrews and fill it with all my favorite things: art, sculpture, design, home and garden, fashion, and jewels. Describe the process from idea to grand opening. When I walked into 211 Royal Poinciana Way in mid-September, my jaw dropped. It had the perfect synergy, space, and light. I instantly saw my vision and could feel the energy of the dancehall it was many years back, before the former gallery. By
the end of the month, I negotiated a lease and got my partner involved. On October 1, we got the keys and started on our grand vision. In less than 60 days, we were open—could have been reality TV! To top off the experience, we added a spunky coffee bar and a flower shop at the entrance. What do you forecast for the future of Haven Palm Beach? I already see ladies grabbing an espresso before tennis; a woman walking her dog and grabbing a bouquet of flowers on her way home; a husband and wife strolling in after dinner and finding a piece of art for their home; a community meeting place for art, culinary, and garden workshops.
Haven Palm Beach carries Cecy Handbags and art by the likes of David Hostetler.

Every pair of Stubbs & Wootton shoes makes a statement, but none so personal as a custom slipper. The company’s bespoke offerings, which span five core silhouettes, are measured to order. Wearers can select their own unique combination of nautical flags, sweater letters, Sea Island cotton, velvet, Italian linen, needlepoint patterns, grosgrain and leather trims, even sterling silver or 18-karat gold monograms hand-sewn by renowned London embroiderer Hand & Lock. “We offer the ability to personalize because many of our clients have very specific requests and would like us to turn their dream slippers into a reality,” says Frank Steinhart, the company’s production manager. “As well as our extensive archive of motifs and monograms, we can also create custom embroidery, from family crests to beloved pets.” They also make for a stylish corporate wardrobe, as Chris Leavitt, director of sales for La Clara, a residential tower coming to the West Palm Beach skyline, recently found. “I felt the momentous time of La Clara rising out of the ground called for a pair of Stubbs & Wootton,” says Leavitt, who ordered shoes with La Clara’s logo for himself and his team. It’s his third decade wearing Stubbs; he commemorates each big deal with a new pair. “These Stubbs represent success, progress, and forward mobility.” (stubbsandwootton.com)

Since Tandy Robinson, Lisa Mulhall, and Cindy Krebsbach founded Impact 100 Palm Beach County in 2011, the organization has awarded more than $3.8 million in grants to 68 local nonprofits—at least $1 million of which has funded organizations focused on women and girls. The second-largest chapter in the world, Impact 100 PBC is led by 32 women board members with diverse backgrounds, from law to education to real estate development. To mark their tenth anniversary as a major local grant funder, the all-female organization plans to continue to collectively fund its signature $100,000 Tandy Robinson, Lisa Mul- grants to local nonprofits and hopes to expand its efforts by hall, Cindy hitting a 600-member milestone.

Boca Raton native Andrea Virgin is living proof that pursuing a career in the arts can lead to a world of possibilities—and no pivot is impossible. The professional ballerina turned land-development engineer is president of the Boca Raton Arts District Exploratory Corp. In that role, she’s helping to trailblaze the Boca Raton Center for Arts & Innovation, a proposed state-of-the-art hub for arts, culture, and entertainment aiming to “fill the cultural gap in Boca Raton” via six adaptive performance and event spaces, both indoors and out. “I credit my second career choice—and, thankfully, relatively smooth transition—to my parents,” Virgin shares. “They insisted I continue securing a degree at night amid my 60-plus-hour training, rehearsal, and performing schedule. I had planned to dance into my 30s, but when the arts took a major hit during the 2008 recession, I was abruptly forced to switch careers, and I had just completed my degree in civil engineering.” After joining the board of the Boca Ballet Theatre, Virgin had the opportunity to marry both sectors. Unlike traditional performing arts centers, the proposed Boca Raton Center for Arts & Innovation will feature highly flex-

ible venues, including a multiform main theater of around 1,100 seats—the floor, ceiling, and walls of which can be adjusted into various configurations, from proscenium stage to concert hall to runway to flat-floor trade show— and a renovated Amphitheater Plaza with protection from the elements. “This project is rooted in nearly three decades of work, discussion, and perseverance, which began with, and has been carried by, the area’s artists and arts and culture organizations,” Virgin explains. “The progress of the project to date is a credit to their tenacity and vision. With this, we hope to provide Boca Raton with infrastructure on par with their talent. For too long, these institutions have performed on the margins of this otherwise vibrant and well-capitalized city.” The Boca Raton City Council recently voted 4-0 in favor of developing a draft ground lease agreement; after that comes capital fundraising, design development, and—eventually—a grand opening slated for mid to late 2025, tying into the City of Boca Raton’s centennial.

For trusted family medicine and specialty care, look to Baptist Health Medical Group North Expert attention, patient convenience and ease of access define Baptist Health’s new physician practice group in Palm Beach County. ensuring patients in our communities have access to physicians that are invested in their health,” says Nelson Lazo, CEO of Bethesda Hospital East and Bethesda Hospital West. “As the county’s health needs evolve, we’ll evolve with them.”
In a year that has challenged the health and well-being of far too many members of our community, BocaCare® and Bethesda Health Physician Group, two of Palm Beach County’s best-known multispecialty physician practices, have come together to form Baptist Health Medical Group North. “While our community may soon begin to notice some visual changes, the professional connections and patient relationships these physicians have cultivated in this area for decades will remain in place — with a bright future ahead for additional growth,” says Lincoln Mendez, CEO of Boca Raton Regional Hospital and Baptist Health Medical Group North.
The new physician group will work closely with Baptist Health Medical Group, which operates physician offices in Broward, Miami-Dade and Monroe counties. The Palm Beach County community now has referral access to the entire 11-hospital Baptist Health network, including renowned centers of excellence in cancer, cardiovascular care, orthopedics and sports medicine, and neurosciences.
This newly aligned physician group gives residents and visitors access to a comprehensive network of clinicians committed to helping manage patients’ health and navigate advanced and long-term healthcare needs. Now, more than ever, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread, it is essential to continue prioritizing your health. That means regular visits with your physician — whether in person or virtually via telehealth.
Past patient satisfaction studies give the group’s physicians high marks for their empathy and compassion for patients’ worries and concerns. Patients also stated they have high confidence in these providers because they take the necessary time to use clear language to concisely communicate and explain patients’ problems and conditions, while including the patients in treatment discussions and decision making.
Baptist Health South Florida is a trusted healthcare organization known for providing expert patient- and family-centered care, delivered when and how patients want it. From traditional inoffice visits, strengthened with advanced safety measures to ensure social distancing, to the convenience of virtual telehealth visits from the comfort of home, Baptist Health Medical Group North is the latest example of the organization’s commitment to the health, safety and well-being of the Palm Beach County community.
“Our physicians now working under the Baptist Health Medical Group North banner share a common mission to prevent, treat and manage acute and chronic illnesses and diseases through ethical, evidence-based clinical practices. We are proud of our record of excellent patient safety and our satisfied patients, providers and employees,” says Gerald Robinson, M.D., vice president and physician lead for BocaCare®.
“As the population of Palm Beach County continues to grow, Baptist Health Medical Group North will play a key role in
Baptist Health’s culture of innovation will further benefit Palm Beach patient care. A new mobile app debuting in 2021 will make delivery and coordination of care even easier for patients.

ESCAPE WANDERLUST
Unexpected ALABAMA
With a pristine state park and trailblazing, eco-luxe accommodations, Gulf Shores, Alabama, surprises as an environmentalist’s wonderland
GULF SHORES AND ORANGE BEACH TOURISM

FARREN DELL
hough Alabama lays claim to just a sliver of Gulf shoreline—32 miles to be exact—its coast makes a big impression thanks to one of the South’s greatest natural assets: Gulf State Park. Measuring a small-but-mighty 6,150 acres (roughly the size of St. Barts), Gulf State Park stands out among other U.S. parklands for its nine well-preserved ecosystems, from pine savannas to coastal swales to maritime forests. Three hundred and twentyfive migratory bird species travel here annually, joining the armadillos, bobcats, alligators, bald eagles, and endangered beach mice that reside year-round. For decades scientists had lauded Gulf Shores’ natural riches— famed biologist and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Edward O. Wilson even dubbed this region part of “America’s Amazon.” However, it wasn’t until recently that Gulf Shores began to appear on the luxury traveler’s radar. In 2019 Eagle Cottages at Gulf State Park (eaglecottagesatgsp.com) was welcomed as a National Geographic Unique Lodge of the World, one of only 63 on Earth. In 2018 The Lodge at Gulf State Park (lodgeatgulfstatepark.com) reopened as a global model of sustainable design, 14 years after PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2021

THE LODGE AT GULF STATE PARK
ESCAPE
the original lodge was destroyed in Hurricane Ivan and more than eight years after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill devastated the Gulf coastline. Together, these two properties have propelled Alabama into the spotlight as a compelling eco-luxe destination. Located along Lake Shelby, roughly a mile inland from the coast, the 11 Eagle Cottages at Gulf State Park are historic landmarks dating to the late 1930s. Built in the collective fashion of a traditional Alabama “fish camp” by the Civilian Conservation Corps as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, the cottages have since been reimagined to fit today’s construction standards and retrofitted with modern amenities. The beauty in staying in one of these threebedroom, three-bathroom cottages lies in immediate access to nature and the 28 miles of backcountry trails that weave throughout the park and its ecosystems (complimentary bicycles wait at your doorstep). Even better are the bundled-in tours with master naturalists who provide in-depth lessons on the area’s vegetation and wildlife for audiences of all levels, from inquisitive children to scientific peers. Born from $140 million allotted to Gulf State Park by the Deepwater Horizon recovery fund, The Lodge at Gulf State Park, a Hilton hotel, was conceptualized as an archetype of eco-conscious coastal

development, pioneering in both design and practice. While the Gulf of Mexico healed from the largest marine oil spill in history, the 350-room, beachfront hotel took shape, replacing a bunker-style lodge from the 1970s and reducing its footprint by a third. Drafted with energy and water-efficiency in mind, the property capitalized on natural ventilation and lighting while showcasing the latest in pro-environment systems. For example, the swimming pool is fed by condensation from the HVAC system; in summer, an average of 8,400 gallons of water per day are channeled from guest rooms to the pool. Surrounding natural habitat was restored through replanting native species, reclaiming coastal dunes (and rebuilding them by placing discarded Christmas trees underneath the sand), and re

Finally, don’t leave Alabama without tasting the talents of three-time James Beard–nominated chef Bill Briand. Local seafood and meats are prepared with Caribbean and Latin American flair at Playa (playaoba.com), the highlights of which are the coconut shrimp (flambéed with rum, chili flakes, cilantro, grilled lime, and topped with spicy mayo), the Playa burger (stacked with grilled pineapple, fried onions, cheddar cheese, Playa barbecue and Alabama white barbecue sauce on a brioche bun), and the vodka-forward, frozen Pink Pineapple cocktail (served in a glass pineapple, of course). Nearby is Briand’s fine-dining restaurant, Fisher’s at Orange Beach Marina (fishersobm.com/ upstairs) where dishes skew more elaborate and the design tells a familiar narrative of reuse and recycle—the floors, for example, are made from reclaimed heart pine from Louisiana’s circa-1892 Godchaux Sugar Mill mule barn. Similar to the unexpected, environmentally progressive lodging in Gulf Shores, the food scene surprises and delights, all the while linking to coastal Alabama’s sustainability program.
THE ORIGINAL OYSTER HOUSE
GULF SHORES AND ORANGE BEACH TOURISM
Southern states pride themselves on great food, and coastal Alabama is no exception. Prepare to feast on some of the country’s freshest seafood, often at restaurants that are part of the pro-environment movement. Begin at DeSoto’s Seafood Kitchen (desotossea foodkitchen.com), a no-frills locals’ haunt, famous for its Old Bay–seasoned, peel-and-eat Royal Red shrimp and pecan-crusted catch of the day topped with béarnaise sauce. Start every meal with a basket of piping hot yeast rolls (wheat, brown, or white) accompanied by whipped honey butter. Be sure to request a side of the decadent sweet potato casserole, which doubles as dessert. For endless summer vibes, lunch or imbibe at The Gulf (thegulf.com), a sprawling, fast-casual beach club where patrons order from a pick-up window and then chillax on picnic benches, eclectic dining tables, and beach cushions overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. The kitchen, bar, and gift shop are housed in an amalgam of colorful, recycled shipping containers from which the most delicious and eye-catching cocktails on the coast are served. (Get the rainbow-colored, rum-forward Surfs Up for pics, the Seasonal Berry Mojito for taste.) Savor the best in Gulf bivalves at the Original Oyster House (originaloysterhouse.com), a 37-yearold restaurant where the meaty delicacies are served on the half-shell, Parmesan-baked with garlic butter, or in the preferred style of the original owners: baked with garlic cocktail sauce, small-batch bacon, and grated Parmesan. The Original Oyster House piloted Alabama’s first oyster shell recycling program to conserve habitat and improve water quality, and other restaurants have followed suit, resulting in 14 million shells collected and integrated into 36 acres of a man-made/natural reef hybrid.

creating a wetland on-site to collect stormwater. Once open, the property made good on its light-on-Earth promise by addressing even the smallest details, such as sorting trash into livestock feed, compost, and recycling; offering straws made from wheat shaft; and utilizing seafood sourced via local fishermen and ocean-friendly initiatives.

STAY CONNECTED!
GULF SHORES AND ORANGE BEACH TOURISM
Park awaits at your doorstep for education- or adrenaline-packed days of birdwatching, biking, fishing, and hiking. Miles of raised boardwalks hover over the land and even zigzag up and down to connect park grounds over highways, dunes, and towering sand live oaks—oftentimes, exploration here excites like a game of Chutes and Ladders. In between bald eagle spotting and ecosystem identification, pay a visit to the park’s Interpretive Center, which produces its own electricity and is close to completing the Living Building Challenge, the world’s most rigorous environmental building certification. Also, take time to appreciate the principal reason most come to Alabama’s coast: the vast expanses of sugar-white sands, idyllic for ambles, sunbathing, and low-key fun. Unlike the majority of the Gulf coastline, which is stacked with monoliths from Florida all the way to Texas, the miles-long beachfront of Gulf State Park houses zero buildings beyond The Lodge and remains an unspoiled stretch of natural splendor. Indeed, this small, protected confluence of undeveloped coastline and “America’s Amazon” is a unique national treasure, one that is now welcoming the eco-minded traveler at not one but two headlining properties.

Southern hospitality reaches its apex at GEORGIA’S SEA ISLAND Few destinations capture the charm and refinement of Southern living quite like Sea Island. Upon entering this resort, nestled on the southeastern coast of Georgia, one becomes enchanted with an abundance of native flora and fauna, all of which is complemented by an array of accommodations. Spanish moss drapes across the serpentine branches of Southern live oaks, resurrection ferns crawling up the historic trees’ trunks. Brown marsh rabbits hop along the water’s banks as eagles soar high overhead. All of this sets the scene for languid days of sunbathing, adventurous excursions amid nature, and rigorous rounds on the golf course, among other pursuits. To be close to it all, book a room at The Cloister. Although the original Mediterraneanstyle building—conceived by architect Addison Mizner—no longer remains, the new iteration of The Cloister carries on its legacy, complete with a Spanish Lounge that features a ceiling, chandeliers, and stained-glass windows saved from the circa-1928 design. One nook worthy of many visits is the solarium, where the chirps of peach-faced and yellow-collared lovebirds fill the sundrenched space. On the upper floors, arcades give way to plush guest rooms and suites outfitted with hardwood floors, Turkish rugs, and beamed ceilings. From The Cloister, it’s a short saunter to the

spa or the Beach Club, where guests can savor fresh seafood at Southern Tide or hit the bowling lanes at Sea Strike & Pub. Here, you can also peruse the Nature Center or embark on an outing with a resident naturalist. To learn even more about Sea Island and its inhabitants—both past and present, animal and human—reserve a bike tour with a historian, who will give you the inside scoop on a few of the 600 or so private cottages dotting the property, some of which are available to rent. Perhaps the best thing about a Sea Island vacation is that there truly is never a dull moment (unless that’s what you’re into). From tennis to squash, falconry to horseback riding, there’s an activity to suit every interest. Over at The Lodge, golf reigns supreme. In addition to
an 18-hole putting course, visitors can choose from three courses and work on their swing at the Golf Performance Center. The Lodge also houses onsite guest rooms as well as cottages nestled along the greens. Each evening, a bagpiper makes an appearance, upholding the Scottish tradition of playing the golf courses “to sleep.” And while it may be their bedtime, it doesn’t have to be yours. Head to the Oak Room to tuck into Southern comfort food with a twist. Think: charred buffalo cauliflower in a tangy hot sauce; fried chicken that has been brined, sous vide, and flash fried to perfection; and Georgia shrimp and grits served with a lemon beurre blanc and lobster oil. Finish the evening with a nightcap from the playful cocktail menu. We recommend the Jackie-O, a mix of Sea Island Guild Gin, St-Germain, lemon, cinnamon, egg white, and a dash of “presidential grace,” a trait Sea Island has in spades. (seaisland.com) «

Jackie Mayne’s career as a competitive equestrian is due, in part, to the horsey culture of her homeland. Her family’s roots in Bermuda date back to the 1700s, and many of her relatives still reside there. Mayne immigrated to the U.S. as a child but spent summers in Bermuda with her father, who owns a pool service company on the island. As an adult, when she’s not traveling for shows or training with her horses, Glenfiddich and Cajou, in Wellington, she returns annually to Bermuda to roam its nature preserves and botanical gardens—and stock up on British candy. “Despite being a tourist hot spot, there’s nothing really ‘touristy’ about Bermuda,” Mayne says. She adds that the island has a strong sense of identity and protects it fiercely—a world of its own just a short flight away. —Skye Sherman

Screen TEST
Cadillac’s redesigned 2021 Escalade comes with a dashboard screen that could double as your home TV By Howard Walker Remember those heady days when you thought a 36-inch television was the pinnacle of big-screen viewing pleasure? You know, the one that made those Mork & Mindy reruns look so enticing. Climb up—way up—behind the wheel of Cadillac’s latest 2021 Escalade and feast your peepers on its industry-first, 38-inch, curved OLED dashboard screen. This is more than 3 feet of wafer-thin, high-definition glass with twice the pixel density of a 4K TV. It’s so wide, so pinpoint precise, so crystal clear, it’s like driving from the front row of a cineplex. As you’d expect, it has the easy pinch, swipe, and tap operation of an iPhone, plus maps so defined you can almost see house numbers on a mailbox. The night vision display is so crisp you can check whether that pedestrian stepping off the sidewalk is wearing an N95 COVID mask or one of those cheap disposables. 86
With such an advanced Escalade, it certainly feels as if Cadillac engineers perused a Sharper Image catalog and said, “Okay, we’ll take the lot.” My favorite piece of tech? That would be the mind-blowing AKG Studio Reference 3D surround-sound system. This thing comes with 36 speakers, a trio of amps, 28 channels, and 360-degree projection. Having The Dixie Chicks—sorry, they’re just The Chicks these days—performing in the back seat wouldn’t sound this good. At long last, this new-from-the-wheels-up Escalade reads as a departure from the SUV’s glorified GMC Yukon/Chevy Tahoe roots. The astonishing quality, fit, finish, and luxe attire now put it head-to-head with the likes of Mercedes’ GLS, BMW’s X7, and Range Rover. As it should for a truck with a base sticker of $77,490 or, in the case of our blacked-out, fully loaded, Sport Platinum 4WD tester, a nontrivial $112,095.

ESCAPE Naturally, for 2021 the three-row Escalade got supersized. As if it wasn’t already big enough, it’s now 7 inches longer, a couple inches taller, and half an inch wider. This is truly the new Colossus of Roads. More important is the 5 inches that have been added between the wheels. This means 40 percent more third-row legroom (it’s up by 10 inches) and a whopping 68 percent more cargo space. Fundamental to this is the S’lade’s more compact independent rearsuspension, with pillowy air springing and automatic load-leveling. The air suspension lets you lower the truck by 2 inches, though trust me, you’re going to want the $1,750 power-retractable running boards. Either that or carry a stepladder. See this new Escalade in the metal and yes, the design is more evolutionary than revolutionary. But the massive grille, mail-slot headlights, honking 22-inch wheels, and vertical slivers of LEDs front and rear will leave no doubt that this is a different version. As before, there’s a cool Sport package—in the past, 45 percent of Escalades have been Sport models—that blacks out all of the shiny chrome on the grille, tailgate, and trim for a more stealthy, bad-boy look. You’d be forgiven for thinking that using “Sport” and “Escalade” in the same sentence is wishful thinking. After all, here’s a honker that’s 17 feet 8 inches long, 6 feet 9 inches wide, and breaks the scales at close to 6,000 pounds. But you’d be surprised. With GM’s remarkable Magnetic Ride Control dampers at each corner coupled with adaptive air suspension, the Escalade no longer rolls around like a freighter in a

If Looks Could THRILL The new, built-in-Wisconsin Marquis M42 express cruiser is a guaranteed head-turner By Howard Walker
It looks Italian. Sleek, racy, a true bella macchina. A boat on which to sip chilled prosecco as you ease into Portofino or drop the hook outside Positano. Or maybe it’s French. Perhaps from the drawing board of Guy Couach or Prestige, the boat’s polarizing styling is meant to spin the heads of le jet set as you breeze into Saint-Tropez’s old port. Alas, you’d be wrong on both counts. This stunning Marquis M42 hails from Wisconsin, land of cheese, beer, and brats. Pulaski, Wisconsin, to be precise, which is world famous for its Pulaski Polka Days music festival. I kid you not. But a boat this dramatic has to have a European connection. And it does. Those dazzling exterior lines are the work of Venetian design duo Carlo Nuvolari and Dan Lenard. They gave the M42 that love it or loathe it reverse-angle bow, as well as its large hull windows and raised sections along each side that almost look glued on. Marquis debuted the M42 at the 2019 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. Unfortunately, its unveiling was overshadowed by the unwrapping of the Lexus LY 650, a $3.7 million 65-footer that Marquis developed in collaboration with the Japanese luxury automaker. And yes, Nuvolari Lenard designed that, too. The original M42 came with a pair of muscley 480-hp 6.7-liter Cummins turbo diesels with V-drives, delivering a top speed of around 35 knots. While interest was strong, buttressed by a competitive $664,000 base price, customer feedback suggested that switching inboards for outboards would heighten the appeal, especially here in skinny-

Part-time Palm Beacher NICOLE ELIZABETH BERGER looks to take her budding acting career to the next level
THE RISE By Skye Sherman Photography by Joriann Maye-Keegan
Unlike most 17-year-olds, Nicole Elizabeth Berger has spent the last decade establishing a career in the entertainment industry—starring in films, modeling for brands like Swarovski and 7 For All Mankind, and fine-tuning her musical prowess. “I always knew that I wanted to be a performer,” Berger says. Her mother, a classical violinist, instilled an appreciation of the arts from an early age. Berger started playing piano and made her acting debut at age 6, embracing her first real opportunity in film when she was cast in a leading role for All At Once, portraying a young musical prodigy whose parents died in the 9/11 attacks. “I think this film really opened new doors for me because I was able to audition for more challenging and emotionally
demanding roles after I showed that I could handle a more mature character in a troublesome setting,” Berger shares. Now with nine movie credits—including six major roles—under her belt, Berger is on her way to achieving the success of her role models, highly accomplished actresses like Natalie Portman, Emma Stone, Lupita Nyong’o, and Jennifer Beals. Berger says she’s inspired by films that showcase high arts on the big screen: the ballet and drama of Black Swan and the musical theater of La La Land. “Music is an incredibly important part of acting for me,” Berger explains. “It helps to convey the emotional heart of the action and the feelings, wishes, and thoughts of characters. It can also help us understand the personality of characters and establish a backstory, move the story along, or help establish a particular mood or atmosphere. Being able to incorporate piano and singing into my portrayal of different characters really gives me an artistic advantage as an actress.” They’re skills she’s honed not only in the Big Apple but locally, too. Berger studied voice and acting under Peter and Jennifer Jones, directors of StarStruck Academy in Stuart, and while attending Palm Beach Day Academy, played Miss Honey in Matilda and Maria in West Side Story—experiences she credits

with helping her grow as an entertainer and performer. “It gave me real confidence to act, sing, and dance onstage in front of live audiences,” she says. In 2018, Berger worked with director, writer, and actor Mark Webber on The Place of No Words, an emotionally potent fantasy-reality flick about a family facing the dying process, played by Webber and his own wife (actress Teresa Palmer) and son. Berger was cast as Esmeralda, a fairy who assists 3-year-old Bodhi in understanding death and the afterlife. She says she enjoyed the interactive experience of working with Webber. “He even sought my advice on the script and gave me the chance to ad-lib many of my lines,” Berger shares. “He really loves improvisation and taking people out of their comfort zone to try and achieve a sense of realism not often seen in more traditional film. I think Mark really pushes the boundaries of filmmaking, using elements from his own life to develop a method of filmmaking he calls reality cinema.” Webber had just finished writing The Place of No Words when he met Berger on the set of Clover, a film in which they co-starred (with Berger as the title character). After seeing Berger’s temperament and abilities in action, Webber knew she was a perfect fit for the role of Esmeralda. “She’s such a smart young woman who is multitalented and just has a great heart, has good values and good morals, and is in this industry for all the right reasons,” Webber says. “She’s a family friend now.”

Clockwise from right: Berger with Cameron Boyce in Runt; Berger, Boyce, and co-stars behind the scenes of Runt; Berger at the Mammoth Film Festival in 2020; on set with co-star Paulina Porizkova for the film Ali’s Realm.
Honored with the Best Film Award at the Giffoni Film Festival in July 2019, The Place of No Words has received critical acclaim since its premiere and recent streaming release. Still, co-starring as Cecily opposite Cameron Boyce in Runt—an indie thriller that debuted at the Mammoth Film Festival in February 2020, bagging the Festival Audience Award—is what Berger cites as the “mountaintop moment” of her career thus far. However, the memory is bittersweet: Two years after filming wrapped, Boyce died tragically of an epileptic seizure. “I learned of Cameron’s death online, actually, and then almost immediately thereafter got a call from the film’s producer reinforcing what I had read,” Berger recalls. “I was completely devastated and heartbroken by the news. I never even got a chance to say goodbye to Cameron. We had plans to watch the raw, unedited cuts of the film together. … Truthfully, I knew Cameron as a Disney star, but when I really got to know him on set, I saw him transition into a character that required him to be highly serious, pensive, and focused. I learned a lot from his work ethic and I will always carry that with me.” While the pandemic has turned Hollywood on its head—with auditions and self-tapes largely on hold and festivals gone virtual—Berger spends her time practicing piano, taking pointe ballet classes over Zoom, reading scripts for new projects, and working with her acting coach to keep her skills sharp in preparation for future auditions. She’s also five chapters into penning a historical novel set in northern England during World War II. “It’s loosely based off of Kristin Hannah’s historical novel The Nightingale, which is one of my favorites,” she says. (But that’s all she’s willing to divulge, for now.) She’s also, somehow, a junior in high school. Berger previously attended LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts—the Fame school—but due to issues surrounding the opening of schools in New York City during the COVID-19 pandemic, she now (remotely) attends Concord Academy, where her favorite subjects are molecular biology and British literature. Between her professional interests and demanding academic schedule, Berger isn’t afforded much free time, but around town—her family lives in both Palm Beach 104 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

and New York—you can find her biking the Intracoastal, perusing the shelves of the Classic Bookshop (“I’m always looking for the next great read,” she admits), enjoying water sports at The Breakers, or popping over to The Royal Poinciana Plaza to grab an iced latte from Sant Ambroeus or an açaí bowl from Celis Produce. Looking ahead to her next decade in the industry, Berger hopes to expand her repertoire. While she has enjoyed her roles in weighty, dramatic films and plans to continue working in the genre, she insists, “I am not going to limit myself to this type of film in particular. I would also like to have opportunities in topical documentaries and musical dramas. I would really like to work on a TV series as a regular, giving me more of a chance to build my character and develop a relationship with viewers that extends over many episodes and progresses over time.” While Berger recognizes that forecasting the future is difficult at her age, especially during these “unprecedented and harrowing times,” her attitude is driven, focused, and positive—that of a rising star who is mature beyond her years, both capable of and steadily preparing for the realization of her biggest dreams. “I certainly hope that I will be able to build on my early experiences in the business and continue learning my craft to become an accomplished actress,” she says. “Whatever the future holds in store, I am ready to go at it full force.” « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2021 107

When fashion designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka visited their West Palm Beach vacation home in February of 2020, the trip was supposed to be a quick stop-over on the way to a series of international travel destinations. Then the pandemic hit. Flights were cancelled. Borders closed. “Boy, did that come to a screeching halt,” says Mischka of their scrubbed plans. So the couple—a design team since 1988 and married since 2013—hunkered down in the West Palm Beach pad they bought in 2019. But it wasn’t long until they decided to stay put for good, transforming their weekend retreat into their permanent residence. For more than 30 years, the couple
has spent weekends and partial winters at homes in Palm Beach and Wellington, where Badgley used to show horses on the Winter Equestrian Festival circuit. “James and I will never forget feeling a warm breeze as we got off the plane,” he recalls of their first visit years ago, to show their Badgley Mischka fashion line to legendary Worth Avenue retailer Martha Phillips. “Coming out of a harsh New York winter, it baffled us. And when we realized people could live like this, we were seduced.” Haute New Home The home is a “charming and beautifully dilapidated” Mediterranean-style villa with “tremendous presence,”

Badgley says, which they found on Northwood Shore’s Flagler Drive. They dubbed the 3,000-square-foot, centuryold residence Villa Iguana. “We may get slightly jealous when we walk into friends’ museum-perfect habitats,” Mischka says. “But we gravitate toward homes that need love in every nook and will always be a project.” From fashion designers to interior designers, the pair says that being homebound due to the pandemic has let them obsess over details, moving long-owned treasures from room to room. For their living room, they placed a shell planter from New Orleans above the fireplace and filled it with papier-mâché leaves from Casa Gusto; reupholstered their Louis XVI chairs in powder blue velveteen; and added a 1920s baroque, gilttrimmed, ivory baby grand piano. With all the effort they put into their home, “you’d think the rules would be white gloves only,” says O’Hara Fottrell, Badgley’s twin sister. Instead, 18-year-old rescue dachshunds Wally, Whiskey, and Rommell—whom the couple nursed from severe emotional and physical wounds— “are kings and queens of the manor. It doesn’t matter how valuable a sofa is. If they want to jump on it, they can.” Horn and fur chairs found at auction grace the master bedroom, to which Badgley and Mischka have added another auction find: a 1950s burlwood desk. The dining room’s chandelier has accompanied them since they were students at Parsons School of Design in 1985. “We barely could afford to eat, but I had to have it,” Badgley says. “We call her Bubbles.” Passion for Fashion Suffice it to say, the designers have come a long way since then. They work at least eight hours daily on Zoom, Badgley

says. “The other day our model was in the Hamptons, our production manager in Manhattan, our design assistant in Ohio, and our production team in China. To place a button on a jacket— once spontaneous—now takes so much effort.” A pandemic sabbatical is not an option. Badgley, the son of a department store retailer, knows better. “It’s a nerve-wracking business, but if you leave, you get run over and left behind.” Rather, they’ve leaned in. Last August they made a bold decision to buy a 1,000-squarefoot space at The Royal Poinciana Plaza. They opened a store two months later—seven years after closing a larger one on Worth Avenue. As a label, Badgley Mischka has expanded beyond formal and bridal wear to more casual caftans and flowing pants. Shoes, handbags, and stationery and glass trays illustrated with Badgley’s fashion drawings were made for local shoppers. The designers have found Palm Beach to be up to their challenges— especially now, when snowbirds have become year-round residents. “Trust me, making the numbers work is no easy thing,” says Badgley. “But people will always seek beautiful things. We love how women here dress and put their homes together.” The pair sees their store as an extension of their new home. A long dining table, now painted white, belonged to Badgley’s parents since their wedding in 1954. “We’d hosted memorable
Living Like Locals Staying put during the pandemic has deepened the couple’s love affair with West Palm Beach, where they scour Dixie Highway’s Antique Row for new furnishings. They also adore strolling with their dachshunds along the beach. “There’s a nice breeze from the Intracoastal Waterway, and we know all our neighbors,” Badgley says. “It’s a fun place to live.” The couple loves to entertain at café tables beneath palm trees on their terraces. Guests feast on elaborate meals that Mischka whips up with recipes from his hundreds of cookbooks. “I read cookbooks like they’re novels,” he says. “I find it relaxing. It’s my zen.” The designers also join friends in the courtyards of their favorite restaurants: Renato’s on Worth Avenue and Sant Ambroeus and the Palm Beach Grill at The Royal Poinciana Plaza. One pastime that’s currently off-limits for Badgley is horse riding; major back surgery in mid-2019 has him sidelined from his beloved sport. But he’s taking it in stride, channeling his love of horses and fashion into fanciful illustrations in marker and colored pencil, which he posts on Instagram (@Mark.Badgley).

When fans asked to buy the original art, he and Mischka decided to sell it on eBay last May, with 100 percent of proceeds benefiting Feeding America. A portion of sales from self-published art books Corona: Love in the Time and Glamour…in the Grass also went to charity. Close-Knit Couple Born three weeks apart and in the neighboring states of Wisconsin and Illinois 60 years ago, the two are now so close that they finish each other’s sentences. Badgley has designed clothes since he could hold a crayon. “No way was my brother not going to be successful,” Fottrell says. “He had that self-driven, gut-wrenching desire to make his dreams happen.” Mischka first studied biomedical engineering at Houston’s Rice University, aspiring to create artificial limbs. He then wound up at Parsons, where the designers fatefully attended the same class in 1985. “A force brought us together at an extremely exciting point in our lives,” Mischka recalls. “We had a lot in common—we’re both down-to-earth, not too crazy—and
aesthetically we were on the same wavelength. You couldn’t have scripted it better.” Even after 33 years of living and working together, the duo could be mistaken for newlyweds. Badgley commends Mischka for being “calm, consistent, smart—and the most phenomenal cook.” Says Mischka of Badgley, “He’s handsome, talented, and kind.” “They complement each other,” Fottrell says. “Mark is much more talkative and loud. In a room he has a presence. But James doesn’t miss a beat with a witty rejoinder. They’re so funny. Mark loves to make up stories and have you fall for them. You’d think as his twin I’d know better, but I still believe him.” The duo also works well together, she says. “They’re like a well-oiled machine.”
Their bedroom features wallpaper and table linens from Scalamandré.

Grounded and Glam The design industry is replete with divas, yet Badgley and Mischka—who have dressed the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Beyoncé, and Jennifer Lopez—are known for being grounded. The couple has not forgotten their roots and their early struggles. With $250,000 in family loans, Badgley and Mischka launched their label in 1988 with a single seamstress. Buzz followed—though retailers had to maneuver through heroin addicts outside and take a freight elevator to their Hell’s Kitchen apartment-workroom-stockroom. “We had to be resilient,” Badgley says. Their big breakthrough came in 1995, when Teri Hatcher wore one of their dazzlers to the Emmys and Winona Ryder to the Oscars. “Through the ups and downs, they’re the same Mark and James they were at 20,” Fottrell says. “They’ve never lost sight of who they are.” One can understand why Badgley and Mischka brim with optimism. “We’re really lucky,” Badgley says. “Fashion has been good to us. We cannot imagine doing anything else. And we’re not nearly done. If designers get nine lives, we have two left.” «
Badgley and Mischka enjoy relaxing outdoors in nooks such as their welcoming garden terrace.

or Michael Buttacavoli and Allison Guzy, their engagement getaway at the White Elephant Palm Beach couldn’t come soon enough. Buttacavoli, a professional golfer, proposed to his fiancée from a top-floor balcony at Kimpton Seafire in Grand Cayman in early March—returning to South Florida 10 days before the state went into pandemic lockdown, dashing hopes for an engagement soiree. “We didn’t celebrate with friends,” he laments.
Two weeks after the White Elephant’s early November grand opening, the couple decided to properly put a pin in their betrothal by embarking on a lighthearted engagement escape to the hotel, which included a bicycle trek to Bradley Park, poolside mimosas, and a candlelit dinner for two on their private penthouse terrace. When they officially come together as husband and wife in July, they will return to Palm Beach for their nuptials during a

four-day, YSD Events–planned weekend that will include visits to such island icons as The Breakers and the Palm Beach Par-3 Golf Course for a pre-wedding, get-to-know-you golf tournament. They have reserved The Brazilian Court for the black-tie courtyard ceremony and accommodations for close friends and family. “It’s hard to say what it will be like number-wise,” Guzy says, given COVID-19 pandemic uncertainty. “It will feel intimate and capped capacity-wise.” Like everyone, Buttacavoli and Guzy have learned to play life by ear

as the pandemic has evolved, but this test of patience and resilience is something they’ve long embraced due to his demanding PGA Tour Latinoamérica schedule that takes him throughout South and Central America. To date, he’s played in 22 countries since turning pro in 2010. They scheduled the wedding and their White Elephant escape around his touring dates and are anticipating their honeymoon to Sri Lanka and the Maldives before settling down in a Miami Beach home located, unsurprisingly, on a golf course.

The couple enjoyed an intimate picnic on their penthouse terrace at the White Elephant Palm Beach. Carla Hagan coordinated the food styling and contributed the calligraphy elements, while Renny + Reed orchestrated the florals and seaside-chic decor.
Food for Thought
Guzy, who works in guest-experience relations with an athletic apparel company, plans to finish her master’s degree in French history at the University of Delaware. She’s particularly excited about seeing how the menu develops as the event draws closer. “The French foodie in me loves chef Daniel Boulud and Café Boulud,” she says of The Brazilian Court’s culinary centerpiece. “It has a French flavor aesthetically and literally.” Because she is a pescatarian, the wedding-day fare will likely feature an array of local fish. Rather than a traditional Sunday send-off brunch, the couple is planning a “hair of the dog” breakfast with bloody Marys, bellinis, and mimosas in homage to her passion for animal rescue and her dogs: American bulldog Cocoa, English bulldog Dublin, and London, a Labrador, who will be part of the ceremony. 130 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Fun and Games
Buttacavoli’s career as an athlete drives him to healthful eating, which they discovered was a shared interest. But beyond food, it was a passion for fitness and sports that brought Guzy, 31, and Buttacavoli, 32, together. The pair were introduced on a blind date through a gym acquaintance. “We immediately connected,” Guzy says. “We both love fitness and exercise. We knew some of the same people and trainers coincidentally.” She is also a world traveler. “I play no golf but he also travels a lot, so we connected a lot over travel,” she says. “We had a lot of common ground.” Originally from the Minneapolis area, Guzy played ice hockey for 14 years before hitting the Colorado slopes her freshman year in college and eventually transferring to the University of Miami. “I understand the grind
126_WEDDING_0221.indd 131
and the other side of the sports life,” she says. “It’s not all glamorous.” Born and raised in Miami Beach, Buttacavoli played a range of sports before focusing on golf, graduating magna cum laude with a bachelor’s in economics from Rice University, where he attended on scholarship. He is working through a complex circuit of tournaments to make the PGA Tour. “I’ve had lots of experiences you can’t learn in grad school,” he says. “The combination of those things has set me up to be successful no matter what I decide to do.” Guzy agrees. “Being around sports my whole life, I have never seen anyone who can push themselves on their own like Michael can,” she says. “He’s very self-motivated.” PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2021

Anyone who’s traveled to Nantucket knows the White Elephant as a beacon of island hospitality. The same casual elegance and romantic by-the-sea vibe has been transplanted to Palm Beach with the opening of a 32-room sister hotel that’s every bit as chic and steeped in history. Located in the landmark building previously housing the Bradley Park Hotel, the White Elephant Palm Beach has honored the original structure while modernizing it with a contemporary aesthetic, articulated in a graphic black-and-white motif, pop art, and a sexy courtyard that’s already become the island’s gathering place of choice. Rooms are petite jewels, elevated by artful appointments and private outdoor spaces. The grandest accommodations are the Palm and Park penthouse suites, which feature living rooms and kitchens designed for entertaining, and rooftop terraces that overlook treetops and Palm Beach’s architectural landscape. —Daphne Nikolopoulos
Wedding Day Details On the big day, the bride will be dressed in an unaltered Vera Wang gown she glimpsed in a Miami boutique but confirmed on a visit with her mother to New York City to review the whole collection. Buttacavoli says he has no doubt the day “is going to be incredible.” The Brazilian Court is where the groom-to-be previously spent a long, beachside weekend with Guzy and her mother, which makes their choice even more special. “I really hope all can go as planned,” he says. “With the COVID uncertainty, it makes it tough. I can’t wait for the day to finally come.” «

Local baker Anna Ross has gained a devoted following among South Florida dessert aficionados. Working under the moniker Anna Bakes, Ross creates weekly themed boxes of sweets, which she promotes on Instagram (@annabakesfl) and sells through her recently launched website. “I’ve always used social media to post my baking, as it’s always been something I’ve enjoyed sharing,” she says. “When I started to sell my own baked goods, I thought Instagram made the most sense since we eat with our eyes.” Ross posts a new box every Monday, with pickups held the following Sunday from her Lake Worth home. On February 8, she’ll share her Valentine’s Day treats, including cherry cordial cupcakes, chocolate-covered strawberry bars, and heart-shaped Oreo cookies. Her boxes sell out fast, so it’s wise to order early. Ross also offers certain boxes year-round, such as a birthday box and baby girl and baby boy boxes that are ideal for gender reveals.

PASSPORT to Flavor Take your taste buds on a trip around the FORTY-FIRST PARALLEL By Daphne Nikolopoulos
JAPAN On a Roll The sushi menu at Lola 41 can best be described as “creative.” Take the Capt’n José roll: spicy salmon, cucumber topped with salmon, kiwi, black tobiko, and sesame aji mirin aioli. Or the Green Light, with spicy hamachi, Granny Smith apple topped with kiwi, ponzu, and lime zest. Not exactly purist, but it works. If you’re more into the classics, they’re all here too. Level up with a libation from the sake menu, such as the ultra-polished Dassai 23 Junmai Daiginjo “Otter Fest 23.”
KOREA Feel the Heat They had us at bulgogi. Korea’s famous dish of thinly sliced, marinated, stir-fried beef is in itself a thing of beauty, but combined with egg noodles, Chinese broccoli, chilies, and fried garlic, it reaches new epicurean heights. Did we mention the chilies? Indulge at your own peril.
CHINA Sticky Sweet The hoisin-lacquered baby back ribs are guaranteed to be messy—but that’s part of the fun. The combination of classic Cantonese sticky soy glaze, smoky pork, chili, and cilantro brings to mind the excellent street food along Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour.
OVI MUSTEA
What do Italy, Greece, Portugal, China, Korea, Japan, and parts of the U.S. have in common? Geographically, they’re all positioned along a latitude of 41 degrees north of the Equator. Culinarily, they can be found under one roof—or, in this case, a plein air courtyard—at Lola 41, the restaurant of the White Elephant Palm Beach. Come with us on a tour of its international menu and rack up frequent-dining miles without the jet lag. (lola41.com)
UNITED STATES America’s Finest The states of New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and California all cross the forty-first parallel, so their cuisines are deliciously represented. The macaroni and cheese, with four cheeses and toasted breadcrumbs, is a study in all-American decadence. The XO Nantucket Bay scallops and lobster benedict nod to Lola’s ACK roots. But the Duck & Waffles tops them all. A slab of Peking thigh and a sunny-side-up egg on a waffle, drizzled with coriander syrup and pea shoots, this singular, melting pot of a dish may just be the key to world peace. PORTUGAL Art of the Algarve The Portuguese-style grilled octopus may be the tastiest and tenderest we’ve had this side of the Atlantic. A generous portion of tentacles served with roasted Yukons, cracked coriander, and an herby pistou, this dish is downright addictive.

BEHIND THE BAR
Originally from Chicago, Robert Bell started bartending in 2016 at C.W.S. Bar + Kitchen in Lake Worth. The following year, he moved to Delray Beach’s El Camino, where he works with a team of four bartenders and oversees a list of more than 150 expressions of tequila and mezcal. He recently took the time to talk tequila and more with PBI. (elcaminodelray.com) —Mark Spivak
PBI: Your tequila and mezcal list includes the distiller’s name and the method of cooking the agave. Why are those details important? Bell: Some houses have master distillers who have been working for years or decades, and they have a distinct style. The way the agave is cooked is crucial—whether it’s in a copper still, brick oven, or ceramic pot, it plays a role in determining the flavor profile. Customers may not be familiar with the taste, so we also give them a thumbnail description. It’s a large list. What’s the best way for beginners to navigate it? Our bartenders go through a rigorous 10-day training program, so they’re qualified to provide guidance. We also offer flights, which give customers the opportunity to sample a range of different options. Do you have any personal favorites?
With tequila, I like Fortaleza and Tequila Ocho—they both have consistent flavor profiles from Blanco to Reposado to Añejo. For mezcal, I’d choose Del Maguey, which has eight different expressions to fit any occasion or mood. What are some of the best food pairings for tequila and mezcal? Remember that many people in Mexico are drinking these spirits all the time with food, and with good reason. We serve what we call “Mexican soul food,” and the robust flavors of tequila go very well with dishes such as our pork belly taco or smoked brisket enchilada. There are also some surprising combinations, such as ceviche and mezcal—the smokiness of the spirit complements the salinity of the fish.

SNOWBIRD At Coyo Taco, winter residents of Palm Beach are so important that they merit their own cocktail. “We launched the Snowbird cocktail when we reopened the bar in November,” says general manager Ryan Dabold. “It appeals to guests who spend part of each year in different climates: It’s tropical and refreshing, which gives customers that Palm Beach feel, yet the spicy, ginger-infused whiskey reminds them of being up north.” In addition to being a novel change of pace from a margarita, the drink also pairs well with the food at Coyo Taco. “We have some assertive flavors in both our grouper and shrimp tacos—such as citrus slaw, achiote, and spicy aioli—that complement the strawberry and mint in the cocktail and highlight the boldness of the whiskey,” adds Dabold.

TASTE Nouveau wines, like Beaujolais, might become more prevalent due to issues surrounding smoke taint.
OFF THE VINE
UP IN FLAMES
How severe West Coast WILDFIRES can SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT wine quality By Mark Spivak
Red wines, such as Pinot Noir, are more susceptible to smoke taint.
A cool and mild growing season followed by a hot, dry August that yielded small and concentrated grapes sounded like the recipe for a perfect vintage throughout most of California and the Pacific Northwest—except for the wildfires, of course. 2020 was the worst wildfire season in modern California history, with more than 4 million acres burned and billions of dollars in property damage. The situation in parts of Oregon and Washington wasn’t much better. On the surface, the threat to the vintage may not seem too serious, as only about 20 wineries were either partially or completely destroyed. The wild card, however, is smoke taint. Unlike in 2017, when we witnessed another round of horrific West Coast wildfires, the 2020 fires occurred before the grapes had been harvested. Burning wood releases volatile phenols that can affect grapes after as little as 30 minutes
From top: White wines, including Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, are less impacted by smoke taint; recent wildfires in the Napa Valley could have a ripple effect on 2020 vintages.
of exposure. Last summer and fall, the smoke lingered for weeks, and air quality was unhealthy as far away as San Francisco. While wine made from grapes affected by smoke taint isn’t bad for you, neither is it pleasant; it typically gives off a plastic or medicinal smell, along with aromas of wet cigar and ash. Research conducted in Australia indicates several ways of mitigating smoke taint in contaminated grapes, including reverse osmosis and treatment with activated charcoal. The identification and mitigation of smoke taint will likely be a big industry on the West Coast for the foreseeable future. Fortunately, the damage was not universal. The worst regions were northern Napa, from Calistoga down to St. Helena, and parts of Sonoma (a large radius around the town of Santa Rosa and the area west of Healdsburg).

Smoke taint is worse for red wines because the volatile phenols collect in the skins. This isn’t good news for the hardest-hit areas of Napa, since the main cash crop there is Cabernet Sauvignon, nor does it bode well for the thin-skinned Pinot Noir. While many of the top West Coast wineries may take the high road and release little or no red wine in 2020, others may not be able to afford to be quite as selective. Given all this, what’s a consumer to do? Here’s a quick guide to what we know at this point: Rosé will be a good red ○ Drink lots of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. wine alternative this year.

WINE and Dine
The couple who purchased this Boca Raton abode had big plans, none of which included keeping the dated Spanish-Mediterranean vibe. Lesly Maxwell of Lesly Maxwell Interiors (leslymaxwell interiors.com) refurbished the space with a clean yet eclectic aesthetic that is also supremely livable. The dining room’s palette was inspired by the courtyard outside. White lacquered Christopher Guy dining chairs, covered in a vinyl version of F. Schumacher’s Birds & Butterflies pattern, sit in contrast to an Artistry Masters of Woodcraft oak table and a Jason Miller chandelier. “The furnishings and artwork tell an evocative story through the calculated use of color, texture, pattern, and form,” says Maxwell.

Perhaps the true epicurean destination in this home is the wine tasting room built with the help of Wellington Wine Cellars (wellingtonwinecellars. com). After blocking and insulating the two exterior openings, they created a vapor barrier and installed units to keep the entire room refrigerated at an ideal humidity and temperature. With infrastructure in place, Maxwell moved on to the decor. “The best designed tasting rooms are those that express the collector’s spirit—a setting that will provide an experience meant to entice and engage the senses,” explains Maxwell. “We purposely chose elements that would keep the focus on the wine, including concrete for the counters and blackened steel accents for hardware and task lights. Oiled walnut wood tones and intentional pops of color in touchstone art and accent pieces add notes of warmth to the room’s retro, modern aesthetic.”

THE BUZZ on Backyard Beekeeping
A South Florida beekeeper shares what needs to be on your honey-do list THE KEEPER Sierra Malnove received her first beehive in 2012. Now she and her partner, Al Salopek, operate Sierra’s Bees and tend to 500 hives spread across their 12-acre farm in northern Palm Beach County. Malnove’s passion has evolved to include leading beekeeping courses and doing mentoring work with the Florida Backyard Beekeepers Association, a group she co-founded in 2014. (sierrasbees.com)
THE BASIC EQUIPMENT “The No. 1 rule when working with bees is to start with a calm attitude and a smoker,” says Malnove. “You’ll also need a jacket with a veil, a hive tool, loose-fitting pants, and closed-toe shoes.” Hive boxes with a lid and bottom board are also necessary to house your new friends. Malnove advises that these should be painted on the outside for weatherproofing. Those who want to harvest their honey will also need an extractor. These can be manual, which you crank
by hand, or electric, which are more expensive but less physically taxing. You can find these supply items—with essentials available in beginner kits—locally at South Florida Bee Supplies (sflbeesupplies.com) in Miami and BeeMade Honey (beemadeusa.com) in Fort Pierce.
THE BEES “I recommend starting with two honeybee colonies. That way, you have something to compare each hive with and you are able to share resources between the hives if needed.” Malnove suggests looking to your local beekeepers’ association to buy hives that are acclimated to the area. From March through November, Sierra’s Bees offers their own nucs (the nucleus of a developed hive) for sale to keepers who want to launch a new hive.
THE HIVE LOCATION “It’s important to make sure you keep the bees out of trouble and your neighbors happy when considering where to place the bees. If your neighbor is active in the pool right on the other side of the fence every single weekend with kids, you might want to put the bees on the other side of your yard. The bees are happiest in a sunny location where you don’t have to mow the yard every week in front of them. You can also get creative and place the beehives on balconies or rooftops.”

1/5/21 12:13 PM
THE HARVEST South Florida beekeepers have a distinct advantage over those pursuing the hobby in other parts of the country. While Northern apiaries may only harvest honey once or twice in the summer, our climate allows for up to five to six harvests annually. Plus, each harvest produces a different flavor of honey based on what’s blooming at that time of year. “I often refer to South Florida as the ‘Land of Magical Beekeeping.’ We are very lucky and can usually expect honey in our first year of beekeeping. I recommend starting in February or March and, with the right guidance, you can expect to harvest honey in July or October.”
THE COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS “I would say the most common misconceptions lie on both sides of the spectrum. People either think it’s going to be easy to keep bees and they don’t have to do anything, or they go in the hives too much and cause too much stress to the bees. Reading your hive at least once a month and taking care of them like any other animal is very important.”
THE PAYOFF “There’s a special awareness that comes with keeping bees that extends beyond the beehive and bees. The bees come and go and tell us a lot about our environment. They also command respect and only give respect
when it’s deserved. To say I love them doesn’t even come close to describing my relationship with them. We cannot live without them and there is something special that happens with a relationship like that.”
THE FINAL WORD “Make sure you feel safe before entering or spending time with your bees, and always use your smoker if you are going to do any maintenance around or in the beehives. I recommend you look to the bees and let them tell you what they need. You can read the entrance and each frame in the beehive like a book, and the bees will tell you exactly what they need. If you aren’t sure what to do, take photos and ask for help. Sometimes it’s hard to know what you’re looking at when you’re looking at it, but snapping a quick photo with your iPhone can give you a different perspective.”

WHAT SETS YOU APART FROM OTHER REAL ESTATE BROKERS?
What sets us apart from other real estate brokers is that we have been living and selling real estate on Palm Beach for over 30 years. I recently started to sell real estate with my mother, Cristina Condon. We have a unique knowledge of special and extraordinary properties on the island of Palm Beach and have a long history of repeat business and referrals. Our sellers and buyers call us first when they are looking to sell or buy an exceptional trophy property or pied-à-terre. Right now, we have one of the most beautiful collections of waterfront listings on Palm Beach. Being part of the Sotheby’s International Realty network also sets us apart from other real estate brokers since it affords us access to some of the most prestigious contacts around the world to market Palm Beach properties.
PALM BEACH HAS ALWAYS BEEN CONSIDERED A PLAYGROUND FOR THE RICH AND FAMOUS. HOW HAS IT EVOLVED?
Palm Beach is a beautiful island with lush landscapes and idyllic weather, which, in the past, has been its biggest draw. Historically, it has drawn buyers looking for seasonal winter homes, allowing them to escape the cold while enjoying the highest level of security and privacy. Over the past few years, Palm Beach has been undergoing an exciting new resurgence that is piquing the interest of young families who are moving here year-round. New developments, restaurants, and retail are helping to create a buzz of energy to the town. Multigenerational families are now interested in establishing roots in Palm Beach on a yearly basis, making the island less seasonal.
IN WHAT WAY IS PALM BEACH UNIQUE FROM OTHER REAL ESTATE MARKETS?
The market in Palm Beach is incomparable. Typically, properties here have always sustained value regardless of outside market factors. Unlike other markets that fluctuate based on macroeconomic conditions, Palm Beach continues to thrive, making it a safe alternative investment to the financial market. Situated between the Intracoastal and the Atlantic Ocean, Palm Beach is such a special town with limited real estate available, truly making it like no other place in the world. Everyone wants their own little piece of paradise.

WARM-UP
All the HOOPLA Want Cirque du Soleil fun without having to join the circus? Fly & Flow Fitness brings the big top to Boynton Beach with circus-meets-fitness aerial classes that are more playful than traditional yoga and allow students to build upper-body and core strength. The newest addition to the studio’s repertoire is a metal aerial hoop, known as Lyra, that is suspended from the ceiling. “The basic idea of the Lyra is to pull yourself up into the aerial hoop, then move your body around the hoop to create beautiful, elegant, and often strengthdemanding positions,” says owner Stacy Brookman. “Mastering a trick on the aerial hoop is so rewarding, partly because it is challenging, but really because it is empowering to gain serious upper-body strength and balance, then have friends in awe of (post-worthy) photos capturing you in beautiful Lyra poses.” Fly & Flow offers weekly Lyra classes, with instruction that can be tailored to an individual’s skill, strength, and experience level.

Drop it Like it’s HAUTE Raindrops in the forecast is not always a bad thing. Kim Knapp, founder of Boca Raton’s holistic Skin Apeel Day Spa, shares insight into raindrop therapy, a treatment with storied roots that she has been offering locally for 28 years. (skinapeel.com) PBI: What’s the background of raindrop therapy? Knapp: The raindrop technique was developed in the 1980s by the founder of Young Living Essential Oils, D. Gary Young, by combining the techniques of Lakota medicine man Wallace Black Elk and the teachings of the Himalayan monks. Our traditional raindrop therapy is a sacred, ancient ritual in which we preserve the original elements and protocol. Raindrop mimics a choreographed dance gently performed on your spine, arms, and legs. It is truly transformational on every level: physical, energetic (spiritual), and emotional. What should people expect with a raindrop therapy treatment? After settling into a warm treatment bed, the guest’s experience begins with a multifaceted approach utilizing aromatherapy, reflexology,
TIME CAPSULES
Raindrop therapy features a proprietary aromatherapy blend.
acupressure, and light feathering massage strokes. A specific aromatherapy blend is exclusive to this wellness therapy: blue tansy, spruce, rosewood, frankincense, oregano, thyme, basil, marjoram, wintergreen, cypress, and peppermint. These essential oils are dropped along the spine and then dispersed into the body using the variety of techniques mentioned above. Warm towels wrap the hands and feet to enhance relaxation. What are the perceived benefits? Raindrop utilizes both biochemical and electromagnetic attributes of essential oils to bring the body into structural and electrical alignment. It provides a powerful boost to the immune system. This therapy may prompt subtle spinal adjustments and relieve minor aches and pains, often the result of lactic buildup. The flow of the movements is directed toward the lymph ducts so that congestions and toxins may be cleared. In addition, the bloodstream is flooded with oxygen and nutrients.
Marc Ronert, a plastic surgeon and renowned anti-aging expert, is writing the inside story on skin care with the introduction of the SkinCapsule line to his nutraceutical company Hush and Hush, which is based in Jupiter. “SkinCapsule is unique in that it targets the most common age-related skin changes: discoloration, breakouts, and dry skin,” says Ronert. “We were able to create something with clean, clinical, plant-based ingredients that serves a specific need but isn’t topical skin care. It works from the inside out.” Ronert notes that when the body is deficient in nutrients and vitamins, it lacks the resources necessary to function optimally and fight the aging process. “Adding back these missing nutrients via daily supplements creates a healthy foundation for the body, so that it can function as intended and become more resistant to overall aging.” (hushandhush.com)

HOW DO YOU RECRUIT AND SCREEN YOUR CAREGIVERS?
Granny Nannies looks for only Certified Nursing Assistants (CNA) and Home Health Aides (HHA). All caregivers are thoroughly screened through stringent checks of their credentials, criminal background, work references, and physical condition. Just as important, they must display the kindness and compassion needed to care for others.
DO I HAVE A SAY IN THE TYPE OF CAREGIVER I RECEIVE?

In 2005, Sara Happ identified what she saw as a hole in the lip care market. She started experimenting in her kitchen, creating concoctions with sugar and edible essential oils. One year later, her Sara Happ Lip Scrub was featured in People magazine. Now regarded as the “lip expert,” her range of lip-centric products are available nationwide, including at local Ulta stores and the Bella Reina Spa in Delray Beach. It has always been Happ’s contention that lip care is skin care and you should treat your lips like you treat your face. Below, she shares her kiss-and-tell suggestions, just in time for Valentine’s Day. (sarahapp.com) Product Arsenal: Lip Scrub for exfoliation Lip Mask for regeneration Lip Treatment Oil for hydration and conditioning Lip Balm for restoration
Frequency: “We always recommend scrubbing at least once a day, using overnight masks nightly, a balm or other hydrator daily, and our clay mask a couple times a week.”
Lip Layering: “The same way you layer your skin care with serums and creams, you should be layering your lip care.” Heal First: “One tip for my friends with cracked and peeling lips—don’t scrub just yet! Heal your lips first with a conditioning treatment, then proceed with scrubbing once the skin on your lips is no longer damaged.”

WHAT ATTRACTS PATIENTS TO SEEK OUT ENNIS PLASTIC SURGERY OVER OTHER PRACTICES IN SOUTH FLORIDA?
We are very fortunate to have clients from all over the world coming to see us in Boca Raton. With a team of professional and caring employees, our practice differentiates itself from the rest in that it offers an expert husband-and-wife team working together to achieve results.

The majority of our patients who travel to our practice in Boca Raton do so for our facial work and the very natural results we always aim to achieve. As the face ages it loses muscle elasticity, which affects the appearance of the skin, thus the misconception that lines and wrinkles are only ‘skin deep.’ By addressing the muscle underneath, we achieve a beautifully refreshed and natural result.
ARE THERE OTHER PROCEDURES YOU ARE RENOWNED FOR?
We recently introduced the latest technology in hair transplantation that leaves no linear scar on the back of the head, and a rejuvenated hair line for the patient. Our breast implant technology achieves very natural results without a scar on the breast, preferring an underarm incision. Finally, our boutique practice approach in Boca Raton caters to a very sophisticated and well-educated group of patients who seek us out based on their research of cutting-edge procedures and our excellent reviews, which speak for themselves.

EXPERT RESULTS Alan J. Bauman, MD, ABHRS, IAHRS
WHY AM I LOSING MY HAIR?
Bauman: You’re certainly not alone. It’s estimated that approximately 30 million women and as many as 50 million men experience hair loss as a direct result of their genetic makeup. Hair loss can also be hormonal and start any time after puberty. If hair thinning or hair loss is a concern, seek a consultation from an experienced, qualified, credentialed, fulltime ABHRS-certified hair-restoration physician who is fully equipped and trained to diagnose, treat, and track your hair-loss process and achieve your hair-restoration goals.
WHAT ARE THE BEST TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR MY HAIR LOSS?
Hair-loss science has progressed very rapidly in recent years and there have been several recent medical advancements that are improving the quality of hair restoration. A few of the cutting-edge treatment options to consider with your hair-restoration physician include minimally invasive, permanent, no-linear-scar follicular unit extraction (FUE) hair transplants; VIP|FUE “no-shave” hair transplants; PDOgro implanted polydioxanone threads; high-density platelet-rich plasma (HD-PRP) with extracellular matrix (ECM); and low-level laser therapy such as the award-winning Bauman “Turbo” LaserCap
ISN’T A HAIR TRANSPLANT PAINFUL AND “PLUGGY” LOOKING?
Today’s advanced FUE technique for hair-follicle harvesting and transplantation differs dramatically from your father’s hair transplant. Unlike the artificial-looking hair plugs of the past, these new techniques, combined with the artistic skills of an experienced surgeon, produce undetectable, permanent, natural-looking results because as little as a single follicle is being transplanted at a time.

TECH REVOLUTION By learning about and embracing AI, today’s students prepare for the workforce of tomorrow By Judy Martel Artificial intelligence, that relatively little-known, swiftly evolving technology, is poised to become as ubiquitous as the internet, making a significant impact on our daily lives and changing the nature of the economy and the workforce. Yet while China and the United States are generally recognized as the world leaders in AI, some experts fear a looming employment gap could leave the U.S. scrambling to catch up to other countries and to the speed of the technology itself. Love it or fear it, AI—which is defined as machine-learning science that essentially teaches computers to process data with the result that they can “think” and make decisions the way humans do—is here to stay. “Artificial intelligence is advancing very rapidly in an exciting way, and we have to start thinking about jobs and how to readjust,” says William Hahn, an assistant professor in the mathematical sciences department at Florida Atlantic University and co-founder and co-director of the school’s Machine Perception and Cognitive Robotics Laboratory. He sees a major challenge in educating not only the upcoming workforce who will lead the way,
but the general public who will have to learn how to incorporate it into their lives. The U.S. is at the forefront when it comes to the higher education of future computer scientists, Hahn notes, proven by the fact that students from other countries flock to our universities. “Ninety percent of the seats in computer science classes at the graduate level are filled by foreign nationals.” He believes that a dearth of tech-specific education early on might account for why more U.S. students do not pursue the field in greater numbers. “China is moving very quickly in this space, and there is a tremendous need to start teaching computer science early and often, but the typical narrative here is to get involved late.” Hahn already sees self-taught youngsters outpacing older computer science students, in what he calls a “weird inversion” wherein amateurs are speeding ahead in the learning curve. “I have high schoolers coming to see me who already know what AI is and how it’s used,” he says. “Our educational systems are actually getting in the way.” While he says it’s difficult to
186 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
186_WEALTH_0121.indd 186
1/4/21 4:49 PM
When it comes to public education, Hahn envisions centers, sort of like libraries, where people can learn about AI. “At the community level, it almost needs to be like fitness centers, where everyone can go,” he says. Initial plans for the new artificial intelligence lab at FAU included specified hours for the public to use the “supercomputers.” In the meantime, some top-notch universities like MIT are putting educational content online—often via YouTube—that can be accessed for free. While adults may have to “crawl before they can run,” Hahn notes, a basic understanding of AI is not that difficult and worth the effort to learn. “We have to embrace technology, not run away.” «
CAPEHART
“disrupt” the curriculum at the elementary school level, basic teachings in technology should at least be a supplemental program like athletics and arts. “I think we need that type of culture in our education system.” To develop that culture, Hahn says elementary and high school systems should redirect more funding toward the computer sciences, starting with a history class in technology. “If I could point to one thing we could do, it would be that. Kids think iPhones come from the mall. They have no idea that human hands made them, so how are they supposed to know how we got to where we are now?” Students who have no aptitude for the sciences will still benefit from a basic understanding of the capabilities and possibilities of AI. Hahn points to the fact that Steve Jobs, the late CEO of Apple, didn’t write a single line of code, but he had the vision to launch a digital revolution that resulted in the devices people now depend on every day.

NATURAL BEAUTY
As many residents and visitors learn early on, there is magic to be found in Palm Beach. Native Floridian Shannon Torrence certainly sees it this way. The house painter-turned-artist will host an exhibition of his paintings of Palm Beach’s storied landscapes at Palm Beach Framemakers from January 28 to March 5. Through his works, Torrence aims to convey a deep love and appreciation for his muse: the nature that abounds on the island.
189_CALENDAR_0221.indd 189
Showcasing views of Ocean Boulevard, Pan’s Garden, and Coral Cove, Torrence stokes sentiments of nostalgia with the stroke of a brush. In addition to capturing the area’s timeless beauty, he hopes his compositions “shine a light on the preservation of our natural places.” Last fall, Torrence jetted off for a 30-day sojourn to Loggerhead Key in the Dry Tortugas as part of the National Parks Arts Foundation’s coveted artist-in-residence program. There, he turned his keen observations of the uninhabited island into inspired works of art celebrating the Florida Keys. (instagram.com/tidalcroftstudio)

The event will include stringent COVID-19 safety protocols, including distanced seating and electronic tickets. “Culture-hungry opera lovers will hear top-quality, live opera in a safe environment and lift their spirits,” says PBO board chairman David Genser. “Thanks to the support of the PBO board, this spectacular match made in heaven has brought a unique opportunity in these challenging times for Palm Beach Opera, Met singers, and our other guest collaborators, and for our audience.” Stars such as Latonia Moore, Isabel Leonard, Michael Fabiano, Quinn Kelsey, and Samuel Ramey will lead the cast of La Bohème (February 19 and 24). Janai Brugger will perform as Pamina alongside Kathryn Lewek as the Queen of the Night and Matthew Polenzani as Tamino in Die Zauberflöte, aka The Magic Flute (February 21 and 26). And the cast of Pagliacci (February 23 and 27) will include Robert Watson and Ana María Martínez. James Robinson, artistic director of the Opera Theatre of St. Louis, will direct all three operas in semi-staged formats. Patrick Summers, artistic director of the Huston Grand Opera, will conduct Pagliacci. The other two operas will come under the baton of Palm Beach Opera orchestra and chorus conductor David Stern.

PAGE-TURNER
If you’ve glanced at a recommended reading list this year, you have likely seen Jason Reynolds’ acclaimed Stamped: Racism, Anti-Racism, and You somewhere near the top. The Spady Cultural Heritage Museum and Arts Garage in Delray Beach will host The New York Times best-selling author for a conversation about the powerful piece in honor of Black History Month on February 20 from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. via Zoom. In the book, Reynolds “remixes” the scope of Ibram X. Kendi’s National Book Award– winning Stamped from the Beginning to incorporate a timely approach for understanding the history of racist ideas, analyzing racism in the present, and molding an antiracist future. To further engage with the community, Reynolds will host a 15-minute Q&A following the talk. Attendance is free. (spadymuseum.com)
