Larry Weiss opened our 40th Anniversary Awards & Charities Gala not as the chairman of Atlantic, Tomorrow’s Office, but as his alter ego—a stand-up comedian. He had the audience roaring with laughter with his signature “LWL” routine and proudly shared that he holds the title of “the best comedian in The Cannata Report’s price range.” Weiss’s comedy performance was presented by HP.
The venerable Robert Goldberg (pictured above) welcomed guests and once again
served as our master of ceremonies. True to form, he delivered his own share of
laughs with his trademark barbs, a special auction item, and the launch of his new “ITYR” apparel line.

Introducing the 2025 Frank Award Winners
All awards are shown in the order presented at the event. Vendor awards (1-6, 8-12, 14-16) were solely determined by dealer votes in The Cannata Report‘s 40th Annual Dealer Survey conducted in 2025. The “Outstanding Veteran Award” (7) and “The Frank G. Cannata Philanthropy Award” (13) were determined by committees of senior industry executives and thought leaders as well as winners from previous years.
