Eding, an accomplished author with too many books to mention, took everything in stride as many of NY’s most chic and courteous gathered in the private room of the restaurant for specialty cocktails, tasty hors d’Oeuvres of mini-grilled cheese and crab cakes,  and a look at her new book which also includes a special foreword by pr pro Norah Lawlor.

They included: Robert Caravaggi (Co-owner of Swifty’s Restaurant), Andrew Flach (Hatherleigh Press), Ryan Tumambing (Hatherleigh Press), Jean Shafiroff (Philanthropist), Angelo David Pisacreta (Angelo David Salon), George Wayne (Vanity Fair contributor), Kathleen Hearst, Nicole DiCocco, May Pang, Sharon Bush, Jane Pontarelli, Paola and Arnie Rosenshein, Actress Suzanne Johnson, Fernanda Capobianco, Michele Gerber Klein, Sharon King Hoge, Marie Michelle Heinemann, and Barbara Regna.

Covering topics from introductions, greetings and thank-you’s, to the etiquette of modern technology, Manners That Matter Most is a valuable resource and a much-needed guide in our fast-paced world.
