What’s
the story with the bow tie?
I’ve
been wearing a bow tie even longer than I’ve been raising
money. In the 1970’s I got started with a maroon velvet clip-on.
In high school, I was able to get the yard sale bow ties from Boston
Brahmin for 50¢. I didn’t realize how much a part of
me bow ties were until I tried giving a seminar in San Diego without
one. I was told I had to wear one, it was just “part of who
you are!” Fortunately, I had one in my briefcase!
