MoMA trustee Kathy Fuld and her husband, Richard, the chairman and CEO of Lehman Brothers possess noteworthy holdings of postwar drawings. Leslee and David Rogath, a local art publisher, have put together a solid collection of modern and contemporary art by Jean-Michel Basquiat, David Hockney, René Magritte, Mark Rothko and others. Herbert Lust, an investment banker who has written books on art investing and on Alberto Giacometti, has a collection with a scholarly bent, rich in Giacometti and Robert Indiana, as well as Sol LeWitt and Yves Tanguy. Beverly and Dr. Raymond Sackler, a veteran of the pharmaceuticals industry, are avid philanthropists who spread their support globally—to the British Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, among others—and locally: They commissioned David Boxley, a Tsimshian Indian, to carve a 35-foot-tall totem pole for the Bruce.

Then there are the resident art personalities who are not necessarily known for their collecting, such as William Ruprecht, the president and CEO of Sotheby’s, and Peter Lawson-Johnson II, who related his experiences as a great-grandson of Solomon Guggenheim in his 2005 memoir, Growing Up Guggenheim.
