Yesterday’s New York Times ran a full-page ad for the Matrix Awards luncheon at the Waldorf-Astoria on 11 April. Sponsored by New York Women in Communications and hosted by the New York Times, the “Women Who Change the World”/Matrix awards lunch includes Tom as an award presenter. He is presenting the Newspapers category award to Pearson PLC’s CEO Marjorie Scardino. Other recipients include Christiane Amanpour (Broadcasting) and Edie Falco (Arts & Entertainment). Tom’s co-presenters include Tina Brown, Oprah Winfrey, and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton—not exactly bad company! This is a group of women I’d certainly love to meet! (The only other male on the program is presenter John Dooner, CEO of ad agency McCann Worldgroup.)
