Katzenberg's Tasteful Fete

“Agent and humanitarian is not an oxymoron,” explained Jeffrey Katzenberg at the Jonsson Cancer Foundation’s 12th annual Taste for a Cure benefit at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel on Saturday. Katzenberg, co-chaired the event, which honored United Talent Agency’s partner and board member Jay Sures with the Gil Nickel Humanitarian award. In an effort to raise money for the foundation, comedian Kevin Nealon auctioned off lavish getaways to Napa, Italy and Australia. Besides the wine and food tasting reception, featuring vino from leading California women vintners and a three-course meal prepared by LA's top women chefs, the close to 600 attendees were also treated to a surprise performance by Mary J. Blige. (S. Francis)
