About the Author

Rena Sindi has thrown some of the most lavish and unforgettable costume parties of the past decade - including Sloan-Kettering's Valentine's Day Ball, New York City Ballet's Dance with the Dancers Gala, and events for the Boys' Club of New York, Saks Fifth Avenue, The Public Theater and Bruno Magli. As Voyeur, Chronicler, and Party-Goer herself, Jessica Craig-Martin, who shoots for The New York Times and Harper's Bazaar, among other publications, chronicles the new social scene and is, herself, part of the society she tracks, she has an eye for young scene-setters and what makes them tick.
