Broken Glass Awards honor women of substance
Tuesday was a day to honor extraordinary women at the 7th Annual Broken Glass Awards at Agua Caliente Resort and Casino.
Nearly three hundred people showed up to see Palm Springs Women in Film and Television honor five ladies who have achieved success by surpassing perceived limitations.
President of PSWIFT Patti Gribow passed along a little advice from Broken Glass Award winner, actress Jane Seymour.
“When I talked with Jane Seymour earlier today, she said her mother told her to lead with an open heart and because of that she says that she felt she never had a glass ceiling that she had to break through, she always felt that there was more she could do in life and that she could do anything.”
Other honorees included Joyce Bulifant, Donna MacMillan, Beverly Johnson, Mary McDonnell. A portion of the proceeds go to local high school digital media and theatrical programs, funding to young people who are pursuing higher education in the arts and reaching over 2,300 students per week with our BookPALS reading program.
