HOSPITALITY: Hotel architect
Bill Bensley, who grew up in the shadow of Disneyland, is one of the most famous hotel designers in Asia, having designed more than 200 hotels in 30 countries. His “maximalist” projects reflect his personality: playful, colorful, and sometimes way over-the-top.

MUSIC: Tanya Tucker
Since the ripe old age of 13, Tanya Tucker has had nearly two dozen Top-40 albums.
