My dream has come true, now that I have passed it on.

I'm on the board of directors for Peace Now, which works tirelessly between the Palestinians and the Israelis to create peace in the Middle East and we've never been closer.

Being creative isn't confined to a specific set of professions -- everyone can and should be innovative.

Sometimes it’s more a matter of collaboration which matters in a collection.
