PILLARS XXXVIII -- AUSTIN BRANSON
Austin and I go back to 2nd grade at Mater Dei School. We were good friends in GriffinLand. Austin went on to St. Alban's and then to Bowdoin College where he played lacrosse and went to Florence with his soon to be wife Maisie and his soon to be business partner. In Italy there was a belt given to Austin from Maisie -- and an idea was born -- it was an idea that turned into a big business!!
Austin and I talk Smathers & Branson, Mater Dei, Vietnam, The Masters, family, golf, movies, life -- had a ball -- thank you, Austin!!!
Smathers & Branson
never forget:
