Most of us have heard of Tiffany, the luxury jewelry design house that has been in business for 189 years, selling to Presidents, Heads of State and the common man. But few know that originally there were two separate Tiffany empires: Tiffany & Co., founded in 1837 by the jeweler Charles Lewis Tiffany, and Tiffany Studios, founded in 1900 by son Louis Comfort Tiffany. Ann Leslie will tell us the story of these two separate Tiffany empires, only one of which survives today. 

Presenter: Ann Leslie is an instructor at Harper College, Barrington, and previously was a television producer and director. She has also written articles for various newspapers and magazines.
