Executive Produced by Kikka Hanazawa '00GS and Tracy Yoshimura Jenkins, and produced by Natalie Nudell, Calendar Girl is a new documentary that tells the story of Ruth Finley, a pocket-sized woman of immense determination who has been the queen of the fashion industry since the 1930s. As a young mother, Ruth created the iconic pink Fashion Calendar, a publication that continues to organize and marshal American fashion today.

Directed by Christian D. Bruun and featuring Bill Cunningham, Carolina Herrera, Nicole Miller, Diane von Furstenberg, and more, this joyous profile is a love letter to fashion and the extraordinary life of one remarkable woman.

*The conversation after the film will be moderated by Sara Ziff '11GS, founder and executive director of the Model Alliance.

A catered reception will follow the program.
