Confessions of a Gala Chair

An interview with Annie Falk by Liza Grant Smith for Palm Beach Charity Register

It is high season here in Palm Beach, and many gala chairs are working around the clock to put the finishing touches on events, insure an A-list crowd is in attendance, and most importantly, raise as much as possible for their charity.

When a dear friend asked me, “how on earth do you do it?”

I was reminded of this article written by Liza Grant Smith for Palm Beach Charity Register. During our interview she so succinctly captured my thoughts and advise for anyone considering taking on the all-important role of event chairwoman that I felt compelled to share it, in her words.
