It was an honor to be a witness to this beautiful coming of age demonstration at this year’s Tatiana Ball, held January 26 at the Russian Embassy, Washington, D.C. Congratulations to all of the debutantes who, this evening, made their first formal entrance into society. The Tatiana Ball, held each year in memory of the late Princess Selene Obolensky, raises funds for the St. John Benevolent Fund for Russian Children in Need. Dr. Clayton Lawrence, President and CEO of LEAP LLC and LEAP Foundation DC, was honored to be among the hundreds of guests in attendance at this uber-private affair.
