New York City was the place to be on February 23rd. Moguls in Media took it’s east coast panel to midtown Manhattan’s WeWork Bryant Park.

Celebrity hairstylist, Tiffany Lamb, ESSENCE‘s Brittney Oliver, Black Enterprise’s digital editor, Selena Hill, author, Gillian Hill and entrepreneur, Jacques Bastien participated in a roundtable discussion which detailed their life’s experiences in the entertainment industry.

Additionally, panelists gave their expertise on how to brand yourself, create a work/life balance, networking tools and how to overcome difficult times while following your dreams.

The panel was moderated by Darcel Laurie, Moguls in Media’s founder and sole proprietor. She was elated to bring Mogul’s in Media to the Big Apple.

“NYC is where I did a lot of my grinding at,” Laurie told RESPECT. “I did my first red carpet in NYC, I did my first TV appearance in NYC and so much more. I was honored that I could give back to the city that started it all for me and my career.”

Professionals at Moguls in Media were able to come together for a common goal: networking and learning. Guests at the panel enjoyed music spun on the one’s and two’s by DJ Fab Roc, food catered by Chef Lex and Mogul Margaritas by Star Tenders Bartending School.

“I was humbled to be a panelist at the Moguls in Media tour stop in NYC, Black Enterprise digital editor Selena Hill told RESPECT.

“Sharing the mistakes, insight, and experience I gained throughout my career is the least I can do to give back to others. I was also honored to share the stage with the event creator Darcel and a host of diverse professionals from different walks of life.”

“Fluffy hair, parachute pants, A Flock of Seagulls, Danceteria: If it weren’t for Paris and Berlin in the ‘20s and Ancient Rome around 264 BC, New York in the ‘80s could lay claim to hosting the world’s most fabulously decadent decade of all time.” – Stephen Saban, founding editor, Details

German-born portrait photographer wowe (Wolfgang Wesener) got his start cap¬turing New York’s nightlife for Details magazine in the ྌs. His images of this unique and decadent period chronicle the night-time prowlings of such club deni¬zens as Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Lisa E, James St. James, Diane Brill and Michael Musto and celebrities on the rise including Madonna, Brooke Shields, Julian Schnabel, Keith Haring, Jenny Lumet and Matt Dillon. Shot with an old Leica SL and a modified handheld flash, the black-and-white portraits are particularly compelling as each subject makes eye contact with wowe, who never clicked without permission.

In 2009 Edition Braus (Heidelberg) published a two-volume slip-cased collection: essence | twenty-five years of portraits by wowe.
