Brigham and Women’s Hospital held its annual Palm Beach Dinner this week at the Breakers, and the evening included a performance by singer
Linda Eder, who made her Broadway debut in the musical “Jekyll & Hyde.” Her audience included BWH president Dr. Betsy Nabel, Partners HealthCare CEO Gary Gottlieb, dinner sponsors Karen and Chris Watkins, entertainment sponsors Andy and Janice Crowley, and party planner Bryan Rafanelli. . . . “M*A*S*H” actor Alan Alda had dinner the other night at Lucia Ristorante in Winchester. . . . Bruins forward Tyler Seguin was spied supping at Red Lantern. . . . Patriots owner Robert Kraft and players Deion Branch, Patrick Chung, and Stevan Ridley were among VIPs with tickets to Friday’s Celtics-Bulls game at TD Garden. We’re told Sox outfielder Ryan Kalish and ESPN’s Steve Levy were
also in the house.
