Gordon Brown

Last Saturday night was a big night in Washington, D.C. for former Prime Minister of England, Gordon Brown. Following the path of many, Brown has written a book and is now touring the globe promoting it.

On hand to help Brown, welcome him to the U.S. and honor him was Connie Milstein, owner of the Jefferson Hotel, where Connie hosted a fabulous party. Co-hosting along with Ms. Milstein was her husband J.C. de La Haye St. Hilaire, and friends Ted Greenberg and Tammy Haddad.

On hand to greet Brown were many top politicians, global financial leaders and media personalities, including  David and Susan Axelrod, Austan and Robin Goolsbee, Ambassador Elizabeth Bagley, Bill Burton and Laura Burton Capps, Stephanie Cutter, Bruce Reed, Eric Lesser and Katie McCormick Lelyveld.
