2006 THE YOUNG & THE GUEST LISTPHOTOS BY ZAID HAMID
|
A NEW GENERATION ESTABLISHES ITSELF
Washington has no shortage of accomplished junior (in age only) social achievers. Their contributions may or may not be millions of dollars to the Kennedy Center, or a new wing at NIH, but they are significant just the same. Not surprisingly, when “Fortune” published its annual list of “40 richest under 40,” Washington was home to a few including: Raul Fernandez, Dan Snyder, Mark Ein, Jeffrey Zients and Michael Saylor.
Their faces and names may not be recognizable to all. These younger folks are not found in large numbers at such events as the Lombardi Gala; more likely they’re dancing at the Corcoran Gallery’s 1869 Society’s parties, or sharing happy hour drinks at chic Maté or IndeBleu with the Young Benefactors of the Smithsonian. Some are making headlines with their political involvements—Adrian Talbott and Justin Rockefeller for example, with their newly formed “Generation Engage” to encourage voter turnout. Others are penning their first books right out of college, as Ross Douthat did when he published Privilege, a compelling tale of his Harvard experience. Sometimes their efforts are discounted, especially when members of fraternity and sorority type organizations, known for giving only pennies to charity, dominate the coverage of younger Washingtonians. But there is another side of the city that is more than a bevy of future “trophy wives” and men prancing around in embroidered pants.
There are many serious contributors to the city’s vibrancy, growth and future success.This list includes those who are donating to deserving philanthropic endeavors, pioneering in the business and political worlds, and raising the bar of taste and style in D.C. Their accomplishments vary as much as their age, from those making significant contributions right out of college, to those on the older cusp, who are already leaders in their respective fields.
All may not call Washington their main place of residence, but each is deeply rooted and among the trendsetters. For these reasons, Washington Life is pleased to debut the Young and the Guest List. There is always room for additions (and subtractions), and we welcome suggestons at wl@washingtonlife.com to our advisory committee.
