Geena Davis

Oscar-winning actress, mother, championship archer, film festival director, memoirist, founder of the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media…Geena Davis has many hats but wears them lightly. The star of such enduring films as Beetlejuice, A League of their Own, and Thelma & Louise is a cut-up at heart, as Leonard and Jessie quickly learned. It's easy to see how she has accomplished so much, especially in the area of female representation in media. She's smart and talented but also endearing…and happy to talk about the people she's worked with (from Penny Marshall to Tim Burton) as well as her history as a creator of whimsical inventions.
