Annual Ed Morse Automotive Golf Tournament Nets Nearly $450,000 for Muscular Dystrophy Association

MDA has dedicated more than $1 billion towards researching muscular dystrophy, ALS, and other neuromuscular diseases.

| SFBW Staff

The 29th Annual Ed Morse Automotive Golf Tournament raised over $431,000 to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association’s mission of leading the way for accelerating research, advancing care and advocating for the support of families. Since its inception, MDA has invested over $1 billion in research for muscular dystrophy, ALS and related neuromuscular diseases (NMD).

Thanks to the fundraising efforts, genetic medicine has made tremendous strides, and the Muscular Dystrophy Association has led the way in identifying the first gene associated with a human disease. It is now breaking new ground by developing some of the earliest cures and treatments for genetic diseases in medical history. The 30th Annual Ed Morse Automotive Group MDA Golf Tournament will be held on Friday, May 3, 2024.

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
