Women's Guild Cedars-Sinai received a double-dose star power at the annual spring lunch at the Beverly Hills Hotel thanks to a high-profile pair of sisters.

The former is one of Hollywood's most famous agents, who represent Jackson, Michael Keaton, James Spader, Eddie Falco, Michael Sheehn, Holly Hunter, Laura Linney, Christopher Linney, Christopher Walken, Diane Lane (attendance), Goldie Horn, Tim Horn, Tim Robbins, Katherine O'Hara, Natalan Lane Lane and Bill Laird and others. Howard Goldberg is a long-time member of the guild, and he volunteered to work with the organization for forty years. She is the widow of Leonard Goldberg, an online executive, film and television producer Charlie's Angels, Radio News, Bryan's Songs and The Simpsons.

During the podium, Jackson won the Women’s Association’s Hollywood Idol Award with his wife Latanya Richardson Jackson, noting that this was his third outing as a host at a women’s guild event. He quipped, “I don’t go to the Academy Awards as often as I attend these events.” But he makes good use of the repetitive looks by praising Howard Goldberg for “good, generous and fearless” and retaining special praise for his long-time agents.

“I can’t imagine my life without her,” Jackson said of Howard. “She was my agent, friend, consigliere, a person who was about blackjack and blackjack to be a hero comic.

Jackson then honored to introduce Judge Judy, also known as Judy Sheindlin, who presided over the fireside chat with his sisters. As for Sheindlin, Jackson calls her a "trailblazer" because her popular TV shows made history, Judge Zhu DeYes, and is the only TV judge above the series to win an Emmy Award. "Obviously, she feels intimate about providing us with the best court TV," Jackson said, adding that he watches her shows every day in the trailer. "I personally want to say that when I first arrived in Hollywood, I met Judy in Tony's backyard smoking and she was personally responsible for me to stop smoking. She gave me to the doctor and when she quit, she asked me to quit."

In her acceptance speech, Howard said that sharing the stage with her sister brought her great joy. "When Wendy was 12, our phone would ring and my sister would pick it up. Some enthusiastic volunteers would dabble in their well-scripted Spiel, 'Thousands of people are suffering. We hope you can donate to help find answers to combat this destructive disease.' She would ask, "What are the symptoms?" Howard recalls. "I promise that when I was 12, Wendy knew more about the disease than the people on the phone. I bet at 12 that Wendy knew the same knowledge of the disease as a doctor."

Because of her obsession, Howard said she often called her sister "Dr. Goldberg" because rarely one day she did not ask for a diagnosis. "Wendy always has the best advice and know if your problem is a knee or a major surgery," she added, and Howard thanked Jackson and Sindling for supporting them during the ceremony. In the latter, Howard said, "When I first met you, I wanted to sign you. I could have made millions of dollars for both of us. But that's OK, you'll never hear any other agent: Your friendship is more precious to me than money."

She then picked out the work of the Women’s Association and Cedars-Sinai’s medical professionals to take care of her 96-year-old husband, David Yarnell, who was hospitalized twice this year. "I was moved by the kindness and enthusiasm your staff showed. David loves to talk to people, no matter what their job is, he ends up talking to them. Everyone is dedicated. Everyone puts such energy and joy into their work. When they change, we see their high steps between each other," she praised. ”

Howard Goldberg recalls a favorite word from businesswoman Lynda Resnick: Resilience. She details its definition. “The Los Angeles community, the Women’s Association, and other winners today have demonstrated this quality brilliantly. "She also called her sister a "real icon, pioneer" of "one of the real, smartest, smartest, hardest" people."

The funds raised in the event benefited the Women’s Association Neurology Program and the Distinguished Chair of Women’s Pediatrics for Children and Sidel Sinai Green. Also at the event, fashion designer Elyse Walker hosted a pop-up boutique that included items from her brand Elysewalker, where 10% of the proceeds benefited the guild. The Women’s Association has raised more than $70 million to date for Cedars-Sinai.
