Yours Truly quoted in a special to the Miami Herald about President-elect Donald Trump

People continue to stumble across a quote in the newspaper. . .

Yes, it’s true. Yours Truly was “Director of Projects” at Mar-a-Lago, 1993–2003.

I spoke with Alex Leary on the phone. He’s the Washington Bureau Chief for The Tampa Bay Times, here’s a quote from the article, a report published in the Miami Herald:

     President-elect Trump, whose political timing shocked the world, spent Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago, closing the loop on a cosmic fate. When the original owner, cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post, willed it to the federal government in 1973, she envisioned a winter White House. Upkeep costs forced it on the market and into Trump’s eager hands.
     “It really is over-the-top architecture,” said Wes Blackman, who worked on restoring and converting Mar-a-Lago into a members-only club. “Someone can wear an expensive suit and look good while another person doesn’t. It takes a certain personality to wear the house. Marjorie Merriweather Post was a larger-than-life figure, ahead of her time. Some might say that about Donald Trump.”
