Mr. Silverstein, president and CEO of Silverstein Properties Inc., was a founder of the event that has become the highlight of the industries’ social scene. More than 1,100 people attended the gala and applauded as “A Winter’s Evening” Co-Chairs Lisa Silverstein and Roger Silverstein presented their parents with the National Jewish Health Humanitarian Award. This award was first given to Mr. Silverstein 35 years ago, and was bestowed upon the couple this year to honor their decades of dedication to National Jewish Health.
