Spring cover feature Russell Goldsmith, chairman and CEO of City National Bank, co-hosted CSQ‘s Visionaries in Real Estate & Finance event at The District by Hannah An.

In honoring the real estate and finance visionaries profiled in the spring edition of CSQ, both Russell Goldsmith and Sandy Sigal (of NewMark Merrill Companies) were presented with plaques in honor of their achievements and recent articles. Each then spoke to their engagement with the magazine and were keen to thank individuals who had helped support their careers.

Goldsmith showed particular gratitude toward his team at City National, both those in attendance and at large, as well as the civic organization in which he chairs, the LA Coalition for the Economy and Jobs. Attendees included leadership from Lee & Associates, SheppardMullin, CBRE, MJW Investments, PGA Tour, Ervin, Cohen & Jessup, SeaChange International, PNC, Tangram, Enplug, REP Interactive, and Dykema.

Supporters and sponsors of the evening included City National Bank, official auto sponsor Aston Martin, supporting sponsor, accounting firm RBZ, and patron sponsor, law firm Perkins Coie.

Guests enjoyed signature cocktails and authentic Vietnamese hors d’oeuvres, a special noodle bar hosted by Restaurateur Hannah An, and live music by jazz guitarist Graham Dechter.

In conjunction with the CSQ and Aston Martin partnership, Russell Goldsmith arrived to the event driving an Aston Martin, which was loaned to him for the week.
