WOMEN SUPPORTING WOMEN SUPPORTING MOTHER NATURE

The intention of this collaborative, charitable project is to provide a supportive environment for women in the arts and most importantly, to play an active role in helping our environment. “The New Hollywood” will create a 2010 calendar using the women in “The New Hollywood” Women’s Goal Group and will be shot by the accomplished celebrity photographer Deborah Anderson. The concept for the calendar will be Art Nouveau and will draw inspiration from the illustrations by artist Alphonse Mucha. All proceeds will go to the non-profit Conservation International, which provides worldwide programs that raise awareness about conservation while maintaining business-like effectiveness.

About us:
"The New Hollywood" Women’s Goal Group, based in Los Angeles and New York City, is a group of professional women in the entertainment industry of all ages, backgrounds and ethnicities. We strive to support each other to achieve our individual, personal and professional goals. We provide a safe environment where our members are accepted as they are and encouraged to fulfill their potential.

Charity:
Founded in 1987, Conservation International (CI) works to conserve the Earth's living heritage - our global biodiversity - and to demonstrate that human societies are able to live harmoniously with nature. Our work is based on cutting-edge science, comprehensive partnerships, and concern for human well-being. With these three principles guiding us, we safeguard valuable species, preserve the most important landscapes and seascapes, and support communities that care for and rely on Earth's natural resources. To reach these goals, we focus on three strategies: dedicating ourselves to innovation, raising awareness about conservation, and maintaining business-like effectiveness.

Photographer:
The photographic art of Deborah Anderson—"a photographer whose distinctive sensuality is located somewhere between classic French erotica and Helmut Newton" (Los Angeles Times)—adorns the walls of such notables as Sir Elton John, Kid Rock and jewelry designer Loree Rodkin. The famed Gansevoort Hotel group in New York and Miami, where her art also appears throughout the property, will exclusively showcase her debut solo album "Silence" (Somis Sound) and her new sensual book Paperthin (Verlhac) as the in-room featured coffee table book. As Art Director for the two hotels, she is currently working on the new Gansevoort Park Hotel project (due to open 2010) in Manhattan. Her book release, in March 2009, is Room 23 (daab), produced by Diana Jenkins. This “year in the life of a hotel room” features 100 celebrities—such as James Blunt, George Clooney, Cindy Crawford, Sir Elton John, Kid Rock, Lindsay Lohan, Donald Sutherland and Jerry Weintraub—raising funds and awareness for the Sanela Diana Jenkins International Justice Clinic at the UCLA Law School Human Rights Center. The first of three children, Deborah Anderson was born in London in the early 70s to Jennifer and Jon Anderson, legendary rock vocalist of the band YES.

Her photography has graced the pages and covers of many magazines including GQ, ELLE, Cosmopolitan, Playboy, L.A. Confidential and Architectural Digest. To house her creative endeavors, Anderson founded LILACREATIVE INC. in February 2009.
