Pangea Day was created from the vision of Jehane Noujaim who was awarded the prestigious TED prize in 2006. TED asked her to make a wish to change the world and hers was to bring the world together through the power of film. I had the pleasure of attending the live filming of Pangea Day at Sony Studios today. It was a great excuse to invite friends, including documentary film maker Cathee Weiss.

I enjoyed sharing the day with women from around the world who are smart and beautiful and not afraid to look feminine. Among them, Queen Noor was a delight in both her demeanor and her shimmering turquoise gown. Meg Ryan, who is on the board of directors of the Pangea project, is eternally adorable.
Sorry I missed it. Sounds like it was a great event!
What a wonderful idea, how great that you got to be a part of it, thanks for sharing!
Thank you Lisa and Jesus for stopping by. I do wish that you had heard about this event in time.
For all the effort and funds that Nokia obviously poured into this, it’s a shame that it wasn’t publicized more before it happened. Granted Jesus is in Mexico but I know that he is very tuned into media, has traveled all over the world and would have loved this.
