A wonderful group of smart, interested women came together at Jodie Evans and Max Palevsky's home to hear Lily and I dialogue and learn about the Women's Media Center

I spent the whole day in a Womens Media Center board meeting. It was exciting because the board members are so fabulous and smart, because we welcomed our new President, Jehmu Greene, and because there is so much critical work to be done.

    Lily Tomlin is one of my favorite comedians. Violet Newstead is my favorite character that Lily has done. When you see her next can you pass the message that someone in Cleveland, Ohio loves her because of Nine To Five?
