Dyan Cannon
Dyan Cannon is the first woman in the history of the Motion Picture Academy to be nominated for Oscars both in front of and behind the camera. Her diligence and determination have been rewarded by many prestigious honors. Her candid memoir, Dear Cary: My Life with Cary Grant (It Books/Harper), is about her marriage to the film legend.
In her signature talk, "None of It's Been Wasted Time: Moments with Dyan," Cannon shares her fascinating journey of how Hollywood, spirituality, and life's exhilarating moments (the good and the bad) have kept the stars in her eyes. Through her story, she inspires and uplifts audiences to unlock the same passion and healing message found in their own life's journey. In her "Dear Cary" talks she talks candidly about her marriage to Cary Grant and how the lessons of heartbreak, forgiveness, and acceptance can apply to us all.
A sought after speaker, she is recognized as an exceptional motivational speaker for prominent associations and corporations. Children are her passion and most of her work centers around the care and welfare of kids. She has been the National Spokesperson for the Hemangioma Treatment Foundation, an organization that provides treatment to children all over the world who are afflicted with vascular birthmarks. She is the International Executive Spokesperson for Operation Lookout, an organization dedicated to recovering missing and exploited children who have been kidnapped from their homes and schools. She has also been National Spokesperson for Martin Colette's Wildlife Waystation, an international refuge that rescues and rehabilitates wild and exotic animals. In addition, she devotes time and energy to several other charitable organizations such as California's Special Olympics, for physically and mentally challenged athletes, and MacLaren Hall, an emergency shelter for neglected and abused children.
