Richard I. Segal, Esq., a third-generation Miami Beach native and successful area attorney with deep roots in the community, has taken the lead as the 43rd chairman of the Miami Beach Chamber of Commerce’s (MBCC) Board of Directors. After nearly 10 years of commitment as a very active member of the MBCC, Segal is positioned to lead with great enthusiasm for driving community impact initiatives. Segal was installed as the new chair during an Oct. 27, 2023 ceremony at the MBCC’s annual meeting, located at the W Hotel in Miami Beach. During his two-year tenure as chairman, Segal will set the agenda of priorities for the MBCC and develop membership strategies for the organization, which represents the majority of businesses fueling the Miami Beach economy. It includes a diverse membership of more than 100 members across its Board of Governors and Pillar Board of Trustees. Starting with his previous position of chair-elect, Segal has already hit the ground running with his priorities as chairman. As part of Segal’s strong relationship with Miami Beach Chief of Police Wayne Jones, Chief Jones has agreed to sit on the hand-picked executive board of the MBCC. This board is intimately involved in the MBCC and is made up of the 25 highest level people in the community. Segal selected Chief Jones to sit on the board as a way of showing MBCC members and the community that safety comes first and so that members have full access to the Miami Beach Police Department. Additionally, Segal assisted in securing Mount Sinai Medical Center, the largest employer on Miami Beach, as a new member of the MBCC at the highest level, the Chairman’s Circle. The Chamber is ecstatic to have them on board and is looking forward to working with them on joint initiative that help the Miami Beach community and provide access to health to all Miami Beach residents. Once members of the Chamber expressed that they wanted to make the most out of networking events, Segal approached David Grutman, founder of Groot Hospitality, about partnering on an annual signature networking event. With Grutman and Groot Hospitality continuing to open new venues in Miami Beach and the fun atmosphere that they bring, Segal knew that they were best suited for the partnership. Grutman has agreed to host an annual signature networking event, and Segal’s goal is to make it the largest and most exciting event of the year. Over the past decade, Segal has served in many positions throughout the MBCC, including multiple tenures as vice chairman of the organization, board member of the Executive Board of Governors and Board of Governors, chair of the Emerging Leadership Council (ELC), and member of the Law Council. Segal’s activism in the MBCC started with his appointment as chair of the ELC, a hand-picked group of Miami Beach professionals working to build and become the next generation of leadership on Miami Beach. Through the ELC, he created and spearheaded the MBCC’s Mentor Program, an initiative to help members of the council gain both business and personal growth from experienced community leaders. As a member of the Executive Board of Governors, Segal spearheaded and brought to fruition the “Weekly Chamber Chat with Mayor Dan Gelber,” a weekly 30-minute Zoom meeting with Mayor of Miami Beach Dan Gelber, open to all MBCC members. In addition, Segal spoke to MBCC’s Law Council and all MBCC general members on “Leaving Big Law and Opening a Boutique Firm, How We Did It and Why It’s as Hard as You Think it is But Equally as Rewarding.” Segal previously became the youngest partner at Kluger Kaplan, and then co-founded his own boutique litigation firm Segal Zuckerman in Miami, where he practiced for five years. He was recently appointed co-founder and co-managing partner of the new Miami office of Rottenstreich Farley Bronstein Fisher Potter Hodas LLP, a national litigation boutique concentrating on complex, high-net-worth matrimonial disputes. In his enthusiasm for the MBCC, Segal follows in the footsteps of his grandfather, the late Harold J. Segal, who helped raise funds and personally financially contributed to paying off the mortgage for the MBCC office headquarters. Segal previously was appointed by the city commissioners of Miami Beach, Mayor of Miami Beach Philip Levine and Mayor Gelber to serve on the Board of Adjustment (“BOA”) and chaired the BOA for two years. “During this dynamic new chapter in the MBCC’s storied history, I am excited to lead the Chamber to newer heights,” said Segal. “With deep roots in the Miami Beach community, I’m honored to take on this important leadership position to continue the city’s success into the future.” More on the Miami Beach Chamber of Commerce The Miami Beach Chamber of Commerce was formed in 1921 to promote the economic wellbeing of Miami Beach's citizens, to improve the quality of life for the entire community and to communicate the view of the business community on major issues of public policy.

Born in Poland, raised in England, and living on Miami Beach since 1987 after accepting an invitation from Rolling Stone Ron Wood to design his club, Woody’s on the Beach, Barbara Hulanicki is a fashion and design icon. She was awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) for Services to Fashion in the 2012 Queen’s New Year Honors and is soon to receive accolades from Miami Beach. Barbara Hulanicki Barbara began her career in fashion in the early 1960s, working as a freelance fashion illustrator, covering all the important collections for major publications of the day, including Women’s Wear Daily, British Vogue, The Times, The Observer, and The Sunday Times. In 1964, she founded BIBA with her late husband, Stephen Fitz-Simon. It began as a clothing mail order business. The first 'brick and mortar' store opened in September 1964, on the heels of Biba's postal boutique's first significant success—a pink gingham dress Barbara designed with a hole cut out of the back of the neck and a matching triangular kerchief. Brigitte Bardot had worn a similar dress, so it had immediate celebrity appeal. The Daily Mirror featured the dress for sale in an article, and Barbara received a remarkable 17,000 orders. Model wearing Barbara Hulanicki design in front of first BIBA store on Abington Road, London Barbara’s Biba revolutionized the London fashion scene, being the first to offer sensational clothes at low prices. BIBA took off like a rocket and quickly grew with a series of boutiques every two years until moving to an expansive space affectionately called Big Biba. The seven-story store had an Art Deco facade and an interior reminiscent of the Golden Age of Hollywood. With the opening of this larger space, Barbara realized her vision to create and experience a 'total look,' one that included clothing for men, women, and children, and branded Biba for the home. BIBA became the first fashion lifestyle brand. Art Deco styled counter at Big BIBA Barbara never exhibited anything in shop windows, believing instead that customers would be intrigued and seduced to enter the shop by a captivating store interior seen and heard from outside because they also played loud pop music that leaked out onto the street. Shopping was immediately transformed into a social event. Biba, with its cool vibe, also became an artist hangout. Members of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones were regulars, along with David Bowie and Freddie Mercury. Cher, Julie Christie, and Mia Farrow all shopped at BIBA, and Yoko Ono once stopped to borrow a dress that she later cut up in a performance piece. Many other culture-makers living in or visiting London visited BIBA during the 1960s and early 1970s. Yves Saint Laurent always made BIBA his first stop when visiting London. Fellow fashion icons Twiggy, Anna Wintour, and Grace Coddington all worked for Barbara. Twiggy Wearing Fairy Costume, image by Barbara Hulanicki from an exhibition at The Betsy Hotel in 2020, called London 1986, Après BIBA. Image used with permission of the artist Twiggy in the Rainbow Room at Big BIBA Without a doubt, the BIBA story is the stuff of Hollywood. In 1987, Hulanicki arrived in Miami Beach, where she immersed herself in and reimagined the city’s Art Deco District, becoming the most influential hotel designer of South Beach’s renaissance, designing hotels like The Marlin Hotel, The Leslie, The Cardozo, The Kent, and The Cavalier. The Marlin Hotel in Miami Beach Marlin Hotel lobby designed by Barbara Hulanicki Hulanicki left her mark on South Beach and won an award from the Miami Design Preservation League for her work on the Marlin Hotel. It is her work on the Marlin, in particular, that is still considered the real kick-off to the revitalization of South Beach. Mayor Dan Gelber will be recognizing her integral role with a Key to the City. Marlin Hotel lobby designed by Barbara Hulanicki In addition to the Biba legacy, Hulanicki has decades of fashion photography, interior and exterior design work, a makeup line, a memoir, and much more under her name. The Betsy Hotel has recently hosted two exhibitions of her work—one of her seldom-seen photographs and the other of her artist sketches, honoring her illustration talents that started her career.
