Ann Taylor celebrates 50 years
So, who was Ann Taylor? Actually, "she" was a dress. The father of Ann Taylor founder Richard Liebeskind Jr. jump-started his son's New Haven, Conn., retail venture by giving his son the rights to manufacture a 1954 shirtwaist dress, the Ann Taylor. The company will re-introduce the iconic dress in two colors this fall.
FINAL WORD
Fox executive Mike Darnell | after a judge turned away a Dreamworks request to block the boxing show "The Next Great Champ" (Dreamworks has its own boxing show, "The Contender"):
