My Portrait In Vanity Fair - The "On Time" Literary Issue

I have always been a great admirer of Vanity Fair. I've been thumbing through the pages of this glamorous publication for as long as I can remember. So, when I was recently asked to have my portrait taken for a special "Literary Issue" for the UK edition (October, 2011), I was only too pleased to say "yes!"

I later learned that the theme of this magazine would be about timepieces. In fact, they've called it: "Vanity Fair On Time." I was asked to select my favorite wristwatch for the photo shoot, which took place at my Manhattan apartment back in June. The timepiece I selected is by Graff Jewelers. It's called the "Graff Superstar." The VF photographer for this shoot is Julian Dufort. He captured this unique image of me in my dining room.

Last week, Bob and I were so pleased to attend a launch party in London to celebrate the publication of this special Vanity Fair "On Time" issue. It took place at the famed Annabel's. A great time was had by all! The October issue of VF hits newsstands in the UK this week. I hope you enjoyed this little preview...
