A Thank-You Note from Hollywood Publicist Michael Levine
Dear Brother Don,
Due to the fact that I have written 19 books on business excellence and represented 58 winners of the Academy Award, I can say that I am not easily impressed.
Having said that, I must report that I was blown away by the great presentation that you provided our company.
The staff, interns, and alumni had a great time. Some of our neighbors also came down and enjoyed the fun. Our joining neighbors included five members from the staff of Magic Johnson.
The presentation was truly great and memorable. I would strongly encourage it to anyone attempting to create a memorable experience.
I have known you over the years of course, but I had no idea how marvelous a product and presentation you have created.
Bravo my friend.
Warmly,
Michael Levine

Fukuburger and Dandy Don’s Ice Cream
Fukuburger owner Harry Morton, son of Peter Morton (Hard Rock Cafe founder) and grandson of Arnie Morton (Morton’s Steakhouse founder), was profiled in the March 5th edition of the Los Angeles Business Journal. The LABJ mentioned how Harry also owns Pink Taco in Century City and The Viper Room. Fukuburger, a Japanese-inspired burger joint, started as a food truck in Vegas. Harry approached the owners and made a deal with them. We’re glad he did because now Fukuburger in Hollywood serves Dandy Don’s Ice Cream.
