Tommy Hilfiger - American Dreamer

Thanks and praise to my dear mother, Virginia Gerrity Hilfiger, who gave me tons of love and confidence while sharing herself with so many others. Thank you, Mom. Im sure I wouldnt be where I am today without your love and support. I miss you terribly. You were a saint. I will love you forever.

Throughout my life I have had the great fortune to be surrounded by incredible people. They have guided and supported me, inspired and driven me to be the best version of myself in life, and served as teachers and partners in my work life. To my wife, Dee; my children Ally, Richard, Elizabeth, Kathleen, and Sebastian; my stepsons Alex and Julian; and my granddaughter, Harley. To my siblings Kathy, Susie, Betsy, Billy, Dee Dee, Bobby, Andy, and Ginny; my sisters-in-law Joanne and Kim, and my son-in-law, Steve Hash; my nieces and nephews Molly, Jane, Michael, Joe, Jamie Lynn, Lauren, Rachel, Jonathan, Andrew T, Andrew H, Will, Audrey, and all my cousins, too numerous to mention. Very special thanks to Susie Hilfiger, Gianni Ocleppo, and Pat and Vedat Erbug.

To my partners at Tommy Hilfiger: Mohan Murjani, Joel Horowitz, Silas Chou, Lawrence Stroll, Fred Gehring, Daniel Grieder, and Manny Chirico.
