Leonard Lauder, one of New York’s most eligible bachelors, is off the market once again. Sources tell us the billionaire widower of Evelyn Lauder is quietly seeing Judy Glickman, a photographer and artist.
Glickman is the widow of real estate developer-turned-philanthropist Al Glickman, who sat on the board of the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. (Al, like the comedic actor, suffered from Parkinson’s disease).
Spies at the Connoisseur’s Dinner for the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation at Sotheby’s on Wednesday night spotted Lauder and Glickman sitting together at the event. We’re told the couple have known each other a long time, but that the relationship is still new.
“They have been spending a lot of time together,” a friend of Lauder’s told us. Glickman splits her time between Maine and Los Angeles, while Lauder lives primarily in New York. Other guests at the Drug Discovery Foundation dinner included Norah O’Donnell, Erin Wasson, Martha Hunt, Elizabeth Gilpin and Paula Zahn.
