"He spends a lot of time looking out the window," read one of Robert Forbes's seventh grade report cards. Even so, he managed to graduate from school and university, and joined the family business in 1975 where he now serves as Vice President as well as president of the lifestyle magazine ForbesLife. After twenty-five years in New York City and six in London, he and his wife currently reside in Florida. He enjoys his work, winemaking with his wife on their property in southern France, and writing poetry, and he still cherishes time spent looking out windows.
