He was brilliant.
And don't miss the last line of this, in which Ian Schrager asks the eternal question for which there is no good answer.

i met robert through annette and we became friends. he appreciated it when i told him his wig was disproportionate and a little unreal in it's thickness. i thought he was going to die from laughter when i said it to his face. RIP dude.

He sounds like he was an impressive, creative man. Schrager's question has no good answer though, because it's a stupid question. Geography does not dictate talent.
That, Patrick, is an interesting perspective. I didn't read it that way but I see your point. I just read it on the surface as a way of saying his talent was innate.
I had the distinct pleasure of having worked on events "garnished" by Robert. He was a genius and an enigma.

I worked with Robert for at least 12 years
and did 90% of the events he was hired
for. All I can say is his eye for color & dimension
was unmatched by anyone in the business.
He would never compromise his vision of the party &
would not let anyone ruin the party, even the
client. Whenever I'm at an event today I see
his influence everywhere.
