CULTURE & COCKTAILS At the Ben Welcomes 100+ to Conversation with Bonnie Lautenberg

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - EntSun -- (Lake Worth Beach, FL – May 10, 2022) Dave Lawrence, President & CEO of the Cultural Council for Palm Beach County, today announced that more than 100 members and supporters attended this season's third CULTURE & COCKTAILS At The Ben in downtown West Peach Beach.

WASHINGTON TO WARHOL was the title of the revealing conversation with Bonnie Lautenberg, an esteemed photographer, writer, and businesswoman. The widow of former U.S. Senator Frank Lautenberg (Dem., NJ), she  regaled the attendees with fond memories and funny anecdotes about her life—taking pix of Ted Kennedy and Chuck Schumer dancing together, getting Hillary Clinton to agree to a photo shoot by appealing directly to Huma Abedin, helping to get important legislation passed following the death of her husband, clicking the camera just as Miley Cyrus spit out a stream of water, working on a musical about the life of artist Andy Warhol, and more.

Lautenberg was interviewed by Carol Rose, Editor of The Palm Beach Daily News.

The next scheduled CULTURE & COCKTAILS will be:
