Remarkable Women 2024
A nationwide initiative to honor the influence that women have had on public policy, social progress, and the quality of life, celebrates local women that inspire, lead, and forge the way for other women.
In the spring of 2024, more than 100 local Remarkable Women winners from across the nation won a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Los Angeles, California.
There, they enjoyed a stay at the Loews Hollywood Hotel, a poolside reception catered by Wolfgang Puck, a tour of Hollywood, a special “Remarkable Women” presentation at the historic TCL Chinese Theater, and a tour of the Warner Brothers Studio lots.
A major surprise went down during an afternoon tour of the Warner Brothers Studio lot! As our Remarkable Women were brought to The Jennifer Hudson Show set for a “tour” and were posing for a picture, the EGOT winner herself popped out and invited them to stay for a show taping.
