AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 days ago

Arts & Culture: A new excerpt from Michael Gross’s book Treasured Island (Harper, June 16) revisits St. Barth’s rougher, pirate-era past and how it shaped Jimmy Buffett’s imagination after he moved to Saint Barthélemy in the 1970s, including a look at a notorious Gustavia hotel and nightclub Buffett owned. Local Music Lore: The piece spotlights David Wegman of Fort Wayne, often cited as an early figure in the island’s “second generation” smugglers—trading in drugs for the old liquor-and-perfume trade—while also painting him as a self-taught artist and musician who’d raced dragsters and later lived aboard a boat off Key West, with Buffett-era connections in the background.
