From the Front Row

Autor Jeffrey H Loria
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 mar 2023
In his honest, engaging, and revealing new memoir, entrepreneur Jeffrey Loria lifts the curtain on two of the most mysterious, high-stakes, and high-profile businesses today: Major League Baseball and modern art.

Before he wrote a memoir, Jeffrey Loria was the author of one of America's most remarkable professional careers. He began as a very private modern art dealer-the sign on his office door was simply the letter "L"-and then became a very public Major League Baseball team owner and World Series champion. Welcome to his unique and thrilling world.

How are great artists like great athletes? How can one recognize great art or great athletic talent? And most of all, who were the amazing artists who changed our visual interpretation of the twentieth century and the talented athletes who are transforming our national pastime? Go inside fascinating artists' studios and high-energy baseball clubhouses and dugouts as Loria shares his keen eye and front-row seat.

From achieving a coveted World Series championship to helping build world-class art collections, which have found their way into many major museums and private holdings, Loria relies on a special mix of perseverance, professionalism, and passion. From the Front Row offers a rare glimpse into the life of a private, sometimes provocative, and highly successful entrepreneur, who has never shied away from taking big risks to achieve big dreams.

Notă biografică

Jeffrey H. Loria is an internationally acclaimed art dealer, specializing in 19th- and 20th-century masterworks. For decades, he collaborated with iconic twentieth-century artists, including Henry Moore, Salvador Dalí, Roy Lichtenstein, and Clyfford Still, and helped build major art and museum collections. He translated that success into professional sports, as the former owner of the Miami Marlins Major League Baseball team. Under his leadership, the Marlins won the 2003 World Series. He is the author of Collecting Original Art and What's It All About, Charlie Brown?, both written in his twenties. From the Front Row is his fourth book. A graduate of Yale University and the Columbia Graduate School of Business, Jeffrey is a devoted philanthropist, having supported universities, hospitals, educational institutions, museums, and other charitable organizations for decades. In 2002, the French government awarded him its coveted Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for his commitment to promoting French culture in America.
