On November 15, 2008, Joseph P. d’Entremont, president of the Lenox Laser Corporation of Glen Arm, Maryland, had a rare opportunity usually reserved for high government officials. While at the Willard Intercontinental Hotel – the same hotel from which the term “lobbyist” was first coined by then President Grant – Mr. d’Entremont was able to meet some foreign dignitaries in Washington, D.C. for the G-20 Economic Summit. Most notable of these diginitaries was French President Sarkozy. This serendipitous event is underscored by the fact that Mr. d’Entremont’s ancestry can be traced back to 15th century France (Provence) and could possibly have an ancestral link to the popular French president.
