April 22, 2016 – (Above) Actor Jason Alexander, whose career did not slow down after Seinfeld but is probably best known for the 1989-98 TV show, holds up a T-shirt that we’re guessing he was given just moments earlier by Howard Tullman (left), CEO of 1871, the tech hub at Merchandise Mart.

Tullman is a noted art collector and one of the artists whose work is in his collection is Jason’s wife, Daena Title, who you may remember as one of the jurors in the season finale of Seinfeld.

Daena Title Or maybe you don’t. Let’s just say she’s a much more accomplished expressionist painter (left), specializing in the “seductive force of modern female icons,” according to her website, than her three appearances on television – two of them uncredited – might suggest.

According to a spokesperson for 1871, Jason was in River North on Wednesday “with a tour for artists” in the Tullman art collection.
