With Bruce Wasserstein gone, family receives unforgiving media attention

Lazard CEO Bruce Wasserstein has died at the age of 61. One of Wall Street's legends, Bruce disappears from the investment arena at the time when the Washington administration does its best to transform America in a State-owned economy.

Media wolves hurried to digg out the details on Wendy Wasserstein's death, the brilliant playwright who was Bruce's sister and passed away in 2006.

Bruce Wasserstein had married early this year, for the fourth time, to Angela Chao (his official girlfriend), an executive of her family's shipping company.

Never seen before pictures with Angela Chao Wasserstein leaked earlier today and were promptly shared publicly (click here for direct link).

M&A bankers, lawyers and investors took the stage today to quote and remember the legendary dealmaker.
