Martinez was the guest of honor at the LIFE fundraising gala at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach and offered to auction one dance with him.
Leaders in Furthering Education board members Walter Schwenck won after a dog-fight of an auction! He then offered the dance to Lois Pope, the LIFE founder and widow of National Enquirer founder Generoso Pope. Long ago Broadway star Pope picked a foxtrot.
Also at the gala: Mar-a-Lago owner Donald Trump, radio pioneer Dick Robinson and wife Sally, Joe and Terry Mendoza, Jeff and Liz Bateman, Internet entrepreneur James R. Whelan, who insisted in wearing his cowboy hat during dinner, and wife Sherrie.
