Roger Horchow, 91 – Mail Order Pioneer And Broadway Producer

PEOPLE Posted: May 4, 2020 8:44 am

Horchow was the first retailer to sell high-end goods by mail-order catalog — without first opening a bricks-and-mortar store on the street to establish its reputation with buyers. He was so successful, he sold his mail-order outfit to the store that had hired him and inspired him: Neiman Marcus. Then he went on to win a Tony Award producing his very first show, which became a world-wide success. And this was when only one out of every 22 Broadway shows ever made its money back. – Art & Seek (KERA)
