Darcie Darcie Glazer Kassewitz has more facets than a brilliant-cut diamond. She is an attorney, with a law degree from Suffolk University, and a former fashion designer. In the early stages of her career, she designed couture evening gowns under the label Darcie Glazer Couture, and had her own salon in Saks Fifth Avenue in New York City. ¶ The trouble was she was working around the clock. “I decided that, if I was going to work 24 hours a day, I would rather work for my family,” she says. The Glazer family owns the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and English soccer franchise Manchester United, among other holdings in various industries. ¶ Darcie now is president of the Glazer Family Foundation, which supports children and families in the Tampa Bay area. One of her main projects is the 2010 launch of the Glazer Children’s Museum, which the foundation supported with a lead gift. ¶ Though she no longer designs fashion, she continues to exercise her creative talents. She designed the interiors of Raymond James Stadium and the Bucs’ training facility, both in Tampa, and even helped design the Super Bowl XXXVII ring. ¶ Though her work keeps her engaged, she always makes quality time with her family a top priority. Not surprisingly, a favorite family activity is going to all the Bucs’ home games, and as many away games as possible. Life in balance: Darcie’s fitness routine consists of running and Vinyasa yoga at Parasutra in Palm Beach. Style signature: “There are no rules for me,” she says. “I mix it up, often pairing evening pieces with casual pieces, for day or night. I like pieces that are different, and I am really into jackets.” Winning moment: Among her most memorable moments is the Buccaneers’ win over the Oakland Raiders in the 2003 Super Bowl.
