“I heard so many people say that they believed Iris was the best luncheon speaker we have ever had, and I agree with them.”

“Last Thursday, at our annual Spring Luncheon (May 6, 2011), Iris Krasnow was our speaker and as expected, what a hit!! Our audience of over 400 loved her! She was funny, moving, entertaining and a pleasure to work with. Our diverse audience of women – young, not-so-young, professionals, stay-at-home moms, etc. – were laughing and crying and hanging on her every word!”

“We hired Iris for our large women's event, Collage. We had about 800 women in the room, and you could hear a pin drop! She was absolutely fantastic. Women were laughing, crying and paying attention to every word. Houston loved her and recommends her to all communities, large or small.”

“Last Sunday (January 29), Iris Krasnow lit up the stage of Seattle's 'Connections' – our largest annual gathering of Jewish women in the Northwest. Iris' personal stories and reflections were clever, witty and poignant. She was entertaining, yet focused our attention on Federation and the importance of giving back to the community.”

– Michelle Shriki
Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle

“On March 16, 2011, Voices, our major event, had 600 women in attendance... Iris Krasnow was our featured speaker. Words cannot convey how wonderful Iris was (is). She connected with every woman in the room, regardless of age. She had us laughing and crying. Every woman I spoke with after our luncheon not only said she was the best speaker we ever had, they said she was the best speaker they have ever heard.”

“We recently (December 2009) had New York Times bestselling author Iris Krasnow speak at an outreach event. She was wonderful! A sellout crowd found her inspirational and entertaining and her message resonated with women of all generations.”
