PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF BYRON GOLDMAN
The definition of connoisseur (Critical judge - of, in, pictures, wine, beauty, etc.) could not be more appropriate in the case of Byron Goldman. His appreciation on a broad array of arts was evident in his personal collection of paintings, jewelry and other works of art. In the field of jewelry he became well known in the industry not just because of his fine judgement and critical eye but in his peerless approach to anyone whom he met. He always respected another point of view and always had the time to talk and discuss objects in question or topics of the day with anyone.
His association with different areas of the trade were broad, but Joe Samuel from the highly respected firm of De Young, and the independent dealer Dennis Scioli, who ran the jewelry department at Sotheby's for many years, were mentors and advisors and helped Byron understand the complex world of colored stones.
Byron Goldman's business success stemmed from the clothing world. The family firm, William P. Goldman and Bros., Inc. ("GGG"), were manufacturers of high quality men's clothing that supplied all the top stores across the country. This success enabled him to diversify into many different avenues of life and with the stage being a passion all his life he was soon able to invest in productions on and off Broadway. His most successful and well known ventures were Hello Dolly, Butterflies are Free and most recently the Tony award winning Copenhagen. However, his interest in the stage was not just with headline productions and his support for the acting community was a vocational commitment.
A native of Manhattan, Byron Goldman won many friends in many different walks of life and he will be remembered by all as a cultured, warm man of values and principle.
