People I Know
Miami Beach
I lived on Miami Beach. These are the people I know personally — a running legend, a city commissioner, and a health pioneer. Each one extraordinary in their own way. Each one part of what makes this place more than a postcard.
The Legend of South Beach
Robert "Raven" KraftHas run 8 miles every single day since January 1, 1975. Over 50 years. 145,000+ miles. 3,700+ runners from 60+ countries. A street named after him. The most iconic figure in Miami Beach history.
The Commissioner

Why Miami Beach
Miami Beach gets a reputation as a party town. Art Deco hotels. Spring break. Nightclubs. But under the surface is a real community with real people doing extraordinary things. A man who hasn't missed a day of running in 50 years. A commissioner who self-funded his campaign to fight developers. A health pioneer who sold his company to Kraft-Heinz and started a shoe company in his 70s.
I know these people. Not from headlines — from conversations, runs, dinners, and the kind of time you spend with people when you actually live somewhere. These pages are my way of telling their stories the way I know them.
