I feel such exhilaration as I write this. New York Women in Film & Television (NYWIFT) created the Muse Awards to recognize the extraordinary contributions women have made in the media and entertainment industry. In 1980, about 100 women gathered at Barbetta restaurant for the first Christmas luncheon— what would become the Muse Awards—to honor critic Pauline Kael. Forty years later, over 1,400 of us are sitting in the Hilton ballroom to celebrate the accomplishments of women in our indus- try. Today we honor the past four decades, and the future of NYWIFT. The following are a few highlights from NYWIFT’s development: 1977: New York producer/director Lenore DeKoven and The Hollywood Reporter bureau chief Morna Murphy Martell convene 25 female colleagues in DeKoven’s Manhattan apartment to discuss forming New York Women in Film—and suddenly the lights go out across NYC. Could the power surge resulting from creation of NYWIF have caused the 1977 blackout? 1990: Susan Sarandon receives a standing ovation for a passionate, politi- cally charged speech at the annual luncheon at the Waldorf Astoria. 2002: A symposium and film exhibition celebrating NYWIFT’s 25th Anni- versary, 25 Years of Women Calling the Shots, is held at Lincoln Center’s Walter Reade Theater. June 2019: NYWIFT presents its first-ever NYWIFT Summit on Inclusion, Equality, and Safety at the Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice. NYWIFT has come a long way, but its core mission remains the same: ensuring that women take their rightful place in the media and entertain- ment industries. Let us celebrate those who have paved the way and inspire us. Happy holidays! Cynthia López -2- -3- NEW YORK WOMEN IN FILM & TELEVISION 40TH ANNUAL MUSE AWARDS Caroline Hirsch The Mayor’s Office of Media & Entertainment Made in NY Award CAROLINE HIRSCH, owner of Carolines on Broadway, the iconic New York comedy venue, is a highly successful entrepreneur, producer, vision- ary, and innovator in the entertainment industry. Her namesake comedy venue has been in business for more than 35 years, and she founded and produces the annual New York Com- edy Festival, which just wrapped its 16th year. In the early 1990s, she produced Caroline’s Comedy Hour for A&E, which won a Cable ACE Award for Best Stand-Up Comedy Series, and Too Hot Tamales for the Food Network. In 2006, Hirsch launched Stand Up for Heroes, a benefit for the Bob Woodruff Foundation that supports wounded veterans and their families and has raised $56 million to date. MARION CURTIS In 2017, she launched a production company, Carolines Entertainment, executive producing the film projectsAsk for Jane, now streaming on Amazon Prime, based on the true story of the Jane Collective: a group of young women who developed an underground network that helped women get safe abortions in Chicago between 1968 and 1973; The History of Anti-Semitism, a documentary series for PBS tracing the arc of anti- Semitism from 400 BC to the present day; and What A Mother, a docu- mentary for Comedy Central that explores the relationships between comedians and their mothers through interviews and clips from film and television, looking at how their mothers have influenced their careers. In 2019, the New York Comedy Festival partnered with The Female Quotient, a company dedicated to achieving workplace equality, to bring a pop-up activation to the festival that included conversations featuring a diverse group of panelists, from comedic talent to media executives, focused on diversity and equality in the workspace. -4- -5- NEW YORK WOMEN IN FILM & TELEVISION 40TH ANNUAL MUSE AWARDS Gloria Estefan GLORIA ESTEFAN is a seven-time Grammy-winning singer, actress, song- writer, author of two New York Times best-selling children’s books, and philanthropist.

Her iconic songs include “Conga,” “Turn the Beat Around,” “Get on Your Feet,” “Con Los Años Que Me Quedan,” and “Mi Tierra.” Her song “Hotel Nacional” was the first by a female artist to debut in the top spot on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart, while “Music of My Heart” received an Oscar nomination. Estefan has received an American Music Award for Lifetime Achieve- ment and was inducted into the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2015, President Obama honored Estefan and her husband, Emilio, with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor. In 2018, the Library of Congress honored the couple with the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song, and in 2017 she received Kennedy Center Honors. The Broadway musical On Your Feet!, featuring Estefan’s hits and executive produced by Gloria and Emilio Estefan, was nominated for a Tony Award and received an Outer Critics Circle Award and a Drama League Award. With her husband, Estefan owns multiple restaurants and hotels and a minority share in the Miami Dolphins. The Gloria Estefan Foundation funds charitable programs for young people and supports research through the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis. The recipient of an Ellis Island Medal of Honor and a Humanitarian Award from St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Estefan sits on the board of trustees for the University of Miami, where she earned her B.A., and holds honorary degrees from that school, the Berklee College of Music, and Barry University. -6- -7- NEW YORK WOMEN IN FILM & TELEVISION 40TH ANNUAL MUSE AWARDS Shoshannah Stern The Loreen Arbus Changemaker Award SHOSHANNAH STERN represents the fourth generation of a Deaf family. While a senior at Gallaudet University she flew to Los Angeles and booked a television role that led to guest-star spots on series such as Providence, Boston Public, and ER and a cameo opposite Matthew Broderick in feature filmThe Last Shot. While playing a rape victim on The Division opposite Marlee Matlin, she so impressed the director that he created a recurring role for her in his next project, Threat Matrix. Stern played a recurring role on Golden Globe–winner Weeds and was cast as Bonnie Richmond on Jericho, prompt- ing the character to be rewritten as Deaf. She then played her first lead role in a film, Annie inAdventures of Power. Other credits include television movie Sweet Nothing in My Ear, independent filmThe Hammer, television series Lie to Me, feature filmNo Ordinary Hero (playing herself opposite Marlee Matlin), and the Emmy-winning music video for “Yes We Can.” Stern starred in a sold-out 30th anniversary revival of Children of a Lesser God at Deaf West Theatre and was nominated for an LA Weekly Theater Award for best actress. She appears as Helen Keller in Comedy Central’s Another Period and was featured in Supernatural. More recently Stern filmedThe Magnificent Meyersons with Kate Mulgrew, Richard Kind, and Lauren Ridloff. She also recently wrapped season two of This Close, a dramedy she wrote, created, and stars in. The show is based on a web series created with her writing partner, Josh Feldman, that debuted at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival. The first season won a Media Access Award and GLAAD and Peabody Award nominations. Stern was named to the 2019 Variety Inclusion Impact list in recognition of her efforts to raise awareness both in front of and behind the camera.

    Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity By Melina Kristine Dabney A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Film Studies 2017 This thesis entitled: Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the new Femininity written by Melina Kristine Dabney has been approved for the Department of Film Studies ________________________________________________ (Melinda Barlow, Ph.D., Committee Chair) ________________________________________________ (Suranjan Ganguly, Ph.D., Committee Member) ________________________________________________ (Reiland Rabaka, Ph.D., Committee Member) Date: The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we Find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards Of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. Dabney, Melina Kristine (BA/MA Film Studies) Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity Thesis directed by Professor Melinda Barlow While there is a substantial amount of scholarship on the depiction of African American women in film and television, this thesis exposes the new formations of African American femininity on screen. African American women have consistently resisted, challenged, submitted to, and remixed racial myths and sexual stereotypes existing in American cinema and television programming. Mainstream film and television practices significantly contribute to the reinforcement of old stereotypes in contemporary black women characters. However, based on the efforts of African American producers like Shonda Rhimes, who has attempted to insert more realistic renderings of African American women in her recent television shows, black women’s representation is undergoing yet another shift in contemporary media.

  • Great Literature Collection
    Great Literature Collection Aldrich Ames: Traitor Within CIA operative Aldrich Ames has, like his father, always been a company man. Although not always competent, he is chief of the Counter Intelligence Soviet Branch and has few friends within the Agency. On the verge of financial ruin due to, among other things, his wife Rosario's heavy spending, the hard-drinking and desperate Ames decides to sell secrets to the Russians. His first "job" has fatal consequences for ten Russians who worked for the CIA. Ames' boss, the Chief of Operations, who is friendly toward Ames, discovers that someone within the CIA is divulging high-level information. He appoints Jeanne Vertefeuille to head up the investigation. Jeanne recruits her own older staff, derisively dubbed the "over the hill gang". Poring through an abundance of records, case files and information proves to be an awesome task and their search goes on for eight years. After a year-long stint in Rome and now with Bush in the White House, Ames continues turning over information to the Russians for millions of dollars, re-routing deposits to Swiss banks and his wife's family in Colombia. Still an alcoholic, he buys a Jaguar and moves his family to an expensive home in a plush suburb. Ames soon realizes, however, that the investigation is closing in and gets very nervous when a Russian politico who could disclose Ames' duplicity defects to America. Ames gets lucky, his treason is not yet uncovered. Ames' own actions, however, begin to draw suspicion towards him, especially when he tries to conduct his own investigation to uncover the spy within the CIA.

    FINDING THE MORAL RUDDER TO NAVIGATE LIFE IS NEVER EASY WHEN YOU’RE YOUNG. THIS IS A BRONX TALE, AND IT’S 1968. CHAZZ PALMINTERI TELLS THE TALE BEHIND THE TALE IN 1960 IN THE BELMONT AVENUE SECTION OF THE BRONX, I was sitting on my front stoop on 187th Street. A car started backing into a parking space and another car tried to sneak in behind him. One man jumped out of a car with a baseball bat, and a fight broke out. Another man came over to protect his friend, pulled out a gun, and shot the man with the bat. I was maybe ten feet from them. The man stared at me and we were bonded for life. In the days following I got to know the man who pulled the trigger, and I became his friend. How was I to know that this incident would shape my life forever? This was the beginning of A Bronx Tale. “I HAVE THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. WITH BOB, I HAVE THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE MOVIE. HE IS VERY ARTICULATE WITH THE WAY CERTAIN THINGS LOOK AND WHERE THE TRUTH IS IN THE CHARACTERS. JERRY IS THE REAL MUSICAL-COMEDY GUY. HE KNOWS STAGE MOVEMENT AND ALL THE NUTS-AND-BOLTS STUFF.” CHAZZ PALMINTERI, BOOK “YOU CAN’T HAVE TWO CONDUCTORS CONDUCTING THE ORCHESTRA AT THE SAME TIME—IT WILL DRIVE PEOPLE CRAZY. BUT YOU CAN HAVE TWO CONDUCTORS DISCUSSING WHAT THEY’VE SEEN AND IMPLEMENTING IT IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE. WE’VE WORKED OUT A PRETTY GOOD SYSTEM.
