The state dinner list was officially announced last night and Katie Couric, 50 had been invited. And guess who Katie brought to the White House? Brooks Perlin. Not much is known about this reclusive person. Asides from his website, sources say the young man does likes to keep his personal life private. On the website, it says Brooks is the son of renowned investor Sanford Perlin.
Brooks, 33, attended Williams College and then dabbled into the hedge fund market. Close friends say he likes to keep fit and loves to show of muscled body while playing sports. He is somewhat of an exercise freak and has participated in several triathlons.
Coming from a business family and a famous father, Brooks has had no difficulty getting a job. He has tried his hand at the stock market but it is not known if has done well like his father. Brooks is currently in the business of selling eco-friendly products.
Sources close to Perlin say that is a nice guy who does not play games and is the perfect match for Katie Couric.
After two years of dating, the CBS Evening News anchor and single mother of two young daughters Ellie, 15, and Carrie, 11, isn’t so concerned about dating a younger man. “They seem comfortable with each other,” says her friend. “She’s a very young 50. She’s playful. She’s cute. She’s down-to-earth. And he’s mature. They seem happy.”
In any case, the pair make a great couple and perhaps now Katie can learn to play tennis like her beau- shirtless? We hope!
