Structured Products Americas Awards 2008

Awards

The great and the good treated themselves to fine wine and dinner at the Biltmore Hotel on the early evening of Thursday May 8, celebrating the Structured Products award winners for the Americas region.

Which neatly complemented an earlier appraisal of Zweibel's shortlived career as a stand-up comic: "You're the worst comedian I've ever seen in my whole life, but your material's not bad. Can I see more of it?"
