Party Photos: Cocktails in New York
At APT, 03.26.03
Yeah, it was raining out. Granted, there was no real occasion
for the cocktail party. And, true, the bar was way far west. But New
York's hippest media folks didn't let any of that stop them. The downstairs
room of APT was packed cheek-by-jowl last week, as a few hundred writers, editors,
photographers, publicists, copywriters, and assorted othters stopped by to
throw a few back with their mediabistro.com friends.
