8 BILL SPINNER: Director of Sales & Catering at The Pierre New York

An icon of the hospitality industry, Bill Spinner was literally born into it—as a young man, he first learned what it means to make people's experiences special by doing everything that needed to be done at his family's restaurant and inn. Today, Bill is in his 20th year at The Pierre New York, where he's Director of Sales and Catering. In that time he's worked with celebrities, socialites, heads of state and CEOs, and he applies that same care to weddings hosted at The Pierre.
