The stars came out at the exclusive “Doubles Club” recently as the literary royalty and social Brahmins both celebrated the 4th Anniversary of the storied Hunter College Writing Center led by Director Lewis Burke Frumkes. In the elegant crowd gathered to honor cognitive scientist Steven Pinker and his wife the novelist and philosopher Rebecca Goldstein (they have been called America’s brainiest couple) one could fine Joyce Carol Oates, Mary Higgins Clark, Nelson DeMille, Bruce Jay Friedman, Daphne Merkin, Iris Love, Malachy McCourt, Barbara Goldsmith (the Center’s Writer-In-Residence), Dan Greenburg, Julia Glass, Molly Haskell, 103 year old Bel Kaufman, Warren Adler, Ben Cheever, as well as the Post’s Richard Johnson and his wife Sessa Von Richtoven, Avenue’s Randi Schatz, President of Hunter College Jennifer Raab, Judith Kelman with her husband Dr. Peter Scardino, Lisa and David Schiff, Denise LeFrak and John Callichio, the producer Nelle Nugent, designer Carlos Aparecio, Tina Santi Flaherty, and many others too numerous to mention. Frumkes always likes to quote Mark Twain as once having said that the secret to a good party, is good friends, good conversation, and a sleepy conscience.” Amidst good food, good repartee, and in the privacy of the Doubles Club a good time was had by all. #
