Its almost December, and its Party Time!
I was hired a couple of months ago to photograph a private party at the Ritz Carlton in San Francisco honoring George P. Schultz in December.
For those of you who do not remember who he is, here is a short bio.
George P. Shultz
From SourceWatch
George P. Shultz has served in various Cabinet positions, including Secretary of State under President Ronald Reagan (1982-89), and as Secretary of the Treasury (1972-74) and Secretary of Labor (1969-70) under President Richard M. Nixon.
Schultz is former President and current Board member of the Bechtel Group, Inc.., and former Chairman of the Committee for the Liberation of Iraq. In these roles he has been both an outspoken proponent of the Iraq invasion, and a hefty beneficiary of the reconstruction process.
“A distinguished fellow at the Hoover Institution, Shultz is the author of several books on economic and foreign policy and advised the 1996 presidential campaign of former senator Robert J. Dole on economic policy. A member of the Council on Foreign Relations,
Shultz was awarded the Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, in 1989.” He is an honorary director of the Institute for International Economics.
He is also on the board of counselors for the Arabic media group Layalina Productions.
I’ll be posting some photos from his party later in December. In attendance will be some other very famous people.
