Valleywag
If the eloi of Silicon Valley look down so on the shallowness of Hollywood and Manhattan, and rate intelligence and achievement so much more highly than appearance, what about Seth Matarasso? The society dermatologist, "who dispenses Botox like Shell dispenses gasoline", is extremely well connected in the Valley, and it can't just be his exuberant personality.
"All the stars in the valley go to him," says a client, with a touch of hyperbole. Matarasso is a friend of Larry Ellison's wife and has holidayed on the Oracle CEO's yacht. He was even spotted, at the database mogul's party for Arianna Huffington, chatting away to Larry Page of Google. I imagine they traded stock and skincare tips.
