Women and Body Image with Kathy Najimy
We are no longer taking online registrations for this lecture. As a courtesy, we offer standby seating on a space-available basis beginning 15 minutes prior to the lecture's start time.
About Kathy Najimy: Known for her memorable performances on both stage and screen (including Sister Act, Hocus Pocus, VEEP and 14 seasons as the voice of Peggy on the award-winning animated series King of the Hill), Kathy Najimy is also an outspoken voice in culture-wide conversations on issues of gender equality and women's rights. In this lecture she speaks to issues of body image, taking on the cultural forces that adversely dictate the self-esteem and image of millions of women today.
Beyond her prolific work as an actor, producer and director, Kathy Najimy is an enthusiastic supporter of women's and girls' rights, AIDS awareness, animal rights and a woman's right to choose, and frequently travels around the country to keynote speak on these issues. In 2005, she was named Woman of the Year by Ms. Magazine.
