I left a comment yesterday, but maybe it didn't reach you. This photo is dated Sept. 15, 1957; it's at the Oak Room of the Plaza. I would describe the gathering as Albert, and Tommy Dunn, giving sustenance & inspiration to a group of DC residents who had just begun a project that would become the National Opera.
