SPECIAL EVENTS – THE BUSINESS OF BEING BORN
Thank you to everyone who helped make the New York Premiere of The Business of Being Born a phenomenal success! The evening celebrated both this incredible film and the debut of the New Space for Women's Health, a project of Friends of the Birth Center. We were thrilled to see so many in our community gather to celebrate the beginning of the only independent women's health, birth and breastfeeding center in New York City.

The premiere and the New Space garnered incredible exposure, including mentions in Chelsea Now, Access Hollywood, InStyle, and even in Romanian and Japanese press! We'll have a more complete set of press links soon.

A special thank you to Executive Producer Ricki Lake and Director Abby Epstein for generously dedicating the national premiere of this very personal film to the New Space for Women's Health. We also want to sincerely thank Rosie O'Donnell, Honorary Host, our honorary and host committees, our fantastic board of directors, and our amazing staff and volunteers; their tireless work made the evening seem effortless!
