We met at his apartment near The Museum of Modern Art in New York. He had invited me over for a meeting in which we would discuss his offer of a position with Univision. I was of course intrigued, a bit flattered and genuinely grateful for his gesture, even though I was content with my job at the head of The Bravo Group.
