Palm Springs Life<\/em> hosted an intimate release party for its December issue at the historic Gerald Ford Estate in Rancho Mirage, welcoming guests for a festive celebration and a closer look at the magazine\u2019s latest edition featuring Jane Lynch<\/a>. Homeowners John McIlwee and Bill Damaschke hosted the gathering, opening the doors to the storied residence for a relaxed poolside evening. The celebration took place on the eve of Lynch\u2019s appearance at The Plaza Theatre in downtown Palm Springs.<\/p>\n

Catering by Lulu Catering and Events<\/a> included a carving station, pasta station, and salad station, along with passed hors d\u2019oeuvres, mocktails, cocktails, and wine.<\/p>\n

Designed in the late 1970s by architect Welton Becket of Welton Becket & Associates, the home served as President Gerald Ford\u2019s post\u2013White House retreat. Completed in 1979, the single-story compound features flat roofs, expansive glass, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, later brought forward through a restoration by Marmol Radziner<\/a> with interiors by Darren Brown<\/a>.<\/p>\n
