Hanging out with Christie Brinkley is Fun!
In honor of its upcoming 70th anniversary, Glamour magazine is featuring 70 women whom they consider to be environmental leaders. I was honored to be included in the group, along with Laurie David, who produced "An Inconvenient Truth" for Al Gore, renowned organic chef Alice Waters, film star Alicia Silverstone, and top model Christie Brinkley.
We all met for portrait photos at Tavern on the Green in Manhattan, then massed in Central Park for a photo shoot that gathered a small crowd of tourists and even a few papparazzi. Christie Brinkley in particular couldn't have been nicer. She knows a lot about nuclear power and wanted to talk energy policy. Anna Aurillio of Environment America and I (pictured, with Christie) happily obliged.
Look for the story in the April 2009 issue of Glamour.
Whoo-hoo Diane! Congratulations.

The issue just hit the stands... Thanks for mentioning nuclear power... Our organization Rock The Reactors has been bringing together the entire fashion industry in support of shutting down Indian Point. Please support our efforts.

When I wrote this post, the story hadn't been written yet. I did a follow up when the magazine came out and did provide the link. Thanks.
