For over 30 years, all of the proceeds from New York Junior Tennis and Learning's (NYJTL) Leadership Luncheon have directly supported free tennis and education programs. This has been possible, in large part, through the efforts of the Benenson family, which underwrites all expenses for the annual fundraiser.
This year's event will be held at The Pierre on November 6. Katrina M. Adams, Chairman and President of the Board of the United States Tennis Association (USTA), and Michael Cayre, President of Midtown Equities will be honored and Jon Wertheim will serve as emcee.
Wertheim is an accomplished author and full-time tennis journalist at Sports Illustrated. He is also a contributing correspondent for 60 Minutes on CBS, and an analyst for Tennis Channel.
Earlier this year, his book, Strokes of Genius: Federer, Nadal, and the Greatest Match Ever Played, was adapted into a Tennis Channel documentary.
