| Monday evening, we joined Mann Publications prez Jeff Mann, his family, and 350 attendees at Cipriani 42nd Street for the sixth annual “Mann of the Year” awards to benefit Mount Sinai Hospitaland The Mann Foundation, which was founded in memory of Jeff’s parents Marion and Irving Mann. Marion died of Alzheimer’s disease in ’01, and the foundation was created to help support research for geriatric disease and ultimately find a cure for Alzheimer’s (it’s estimated that by 2030, 17 million Americans will have the disease). Among the honorees in the fashion, financial, and real estate industries was Cushman & Wakefield chairman of global brokerage Bruce Mosler, whom we snapped with Town Real Estate chairman Andrew Heiberger and C&W executive director David Rosenbloom. |

The firm recently launched a San Francisco office, which is up and running with Chris Papa at the helm. In short: “Life is good,” he says. |
