Argentine businessman Miguel Schapire, founder of Le Club and famous PR, died at the age of 77. The businessman was in Punta del Este and would have hit himself when he fell, according to several Argentine media.
Schapire’s beginnings are linked to the world of letters, since his father had a publishing label that had promoted the work of Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway, Jean Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir, among others. However, that chapter was closed during the Lanusse government due to the persecution to which she was subjected to her family.
Already in the 80s Schapire turned to the world of the night and began to rub shoulders with figures from the world of entertainment, sports and traditional families at Le Club, located on Quintana and Parera.
“During Lanusse’s time, the publishing house and bookstore that they used on Uruguay street were burned down, and I realized that things were not enough, that intellectuals had no place. That’s when it occurred to me that if a cocaine could be sold for five dollars at night and a glass of whiskey for 25 dollars, the business was to be at night”, recalled Schapire in an interview given to Hola.
Le Club was also based in Punta del Este. There, as well as a bowling alley, there was a very exclusive hostel for what happened from Rod Stewart to Joan Manuel Serrat. Then the premises of both countries would close.
Currently, for twenty years Le Club Punta del Este has been operating by the sea, in La Barra, and is open five months a year. It is a boutique hotel with fourteen rooms. “It is handmade, hyper boutique. We are with the lights well on in the intellectual field”, Shcapire assured in a note made by Revista La Nación.
