On August 18, Max Wolfson Schapiro and his husband, Jared Seligman, hosted a fundraiser in memory of Max’s late brother, Adam Schapiro, for the Israel Tennis and Education Centers at their home in Bridgehampton. Adam lost his battle with brain cancer about a month prior. He was an extraordinary tennis player – and the Schapiro family has been involved with the ITEC since its inception – so the couple thought it was fitting to hold this event in Adam’s honor.
Yoni Yair, executive VP of development, and Stacey Locker, senior VP of development of ITEC, accompanied a handful of young Israeli tennis players and joined guests for cocktails and canapés provided by East Hampton Kitchen.
Attendees included John Monsky, Kim Murstein, Gail Rudnick, Stephanie Nass and David Ulevitch, Carly Zakin, Maximilian Icke and Irina Kro, Glenn and Sammy Nussdorf, Carl Neubardt, Dylan Reiff, Lesley Schulhof, Guy Clark and Harrison Morgan, and Elliot Cohen and Isabelle Solmonson Cohen.
