This promotional email from Williams-Sonoma is in honor of their founder’s birthday. Chuck Williams is a true pioneer and is a legendary figure in the hospitality and retail industries. To read more about Chuck Williams’ life and the Williams-Sonoma legacy, go here. From contractor to hardware store owner to founder of a multi billion dollar high end retail chain, his life story (thus far!) is an amazing one. As a side note, I had the pleasure to take care of Mr. Williams a few times, back in my prior career in the restaurant industry at Fleur de Lys. I am pleased to report he was a very gracious and humble guest, and it was a true pleasure to serve him!
