Scarsdale's Shelley Diamond, who is on Fortune Magazine's list of "Most Powerful Women" appeared on the CNN television show Anderson Cooper 360 with a panel of women commenting on the Democratic debate. Diamond said, "I would love to see a true reach across the aisle and have Hillary reach out to Republican John Kasich and ask him to be her running mate." Diamond is experienced at building consensus in her job as Chief Client Officer at Young & Rubicam where she has worked for 23 years.

A new Georgian brick Fox Meadow home with interiors designed by Vicente Wolf is featured in Architectural Digest. The 8,500 square foot home has classic details but Wolf gave it a contemporary look by using warm, neutral finishes and a mix of antique and modern furnishings. Wolf calls it a "successful synthesis of traditional and contemporary styles," and says, "Mix things the right way and you end up with something special."
