I attended, they did not serve Chicken Ala King, but a delicious Salmon...Would I say it was worth $500 and the T shirt for $125...Ask me on a good day...Also, I was disappointed that Ron Meyer, my ex agent at the William Morris Office didn't attend as advertised...In "Variety"
Anyway, they raised over a million for the evening...I hope placing the event with all the contact info on my blog helped them...I did feel that $17 for parking, plus at the Bevery Hills Hilton for less than a two hour event was rather EXCESSIVE, but what the heck do I know...NOTHING! I did receive the tax information regarding giving to charities from the Anti Defamation Leage....And, oh yes, an invitation to give $40,000 for a guest table to see Mel Brooks, not that you're not worth it Mel, but I need a paying job, right now. I've been spending loads of energy and time in attempting to get my plan, Artists and Friends off the ground since it was dropped in to my brain last year...By the Creator.
Have a nice day!
Sincerely,
Gwendolyn Mitchell

For Cyclists and Healthful Food
The bike shop where I bought my two wheel "vehicle" is located at 1329 N LaBrea Ave. Inglewood, CA 90302...George Turner Jr is the Proprietor, real personable and knows his stuff...Telephone 310-412-5836...And probably one the best places for the best prices in town...
Helen's Bicycle Shop on Gayley in Westwood, across from Whole Foods...
"Matt" is the guy to see...Knows his stuff about both bikes and eating right...Turned me on to the video, "Forks Over Knives"...Check it outt...

Back tp Artists With Friends...Plus, Cycle At Your Own Risk.
My blog had been out of whack up until two days ago...The Back to Artists With Friends to make it possible to be able to support ourselves by what we earn and to eliminate tax overload...(I know some believe taxes are good and even believe in the carbon tax...I don't believe in a carbon tax and it sounds like in my opinion, that the EPA will have way too much power, and how will they determine such a thing? I don't mind paying taxes as long as the money is being directed where it should be)...I had the experience of riding LA's city streets on my newly purchased bike which I bought from a shop in Inglewood, Penuel Bicycles. I could not believe from Hollywood to Beverly Hills to Santa Monica, taking several different routes, how hazardous the city streets are for cyclists. Pot holes, as large as a Smart car...I fell off my bike at least three times, uninjured thank goodness...BUT WE NEED BIKE PATHS...to cut down on injuries and deaths...
And what I need, is visible support rather than verbal attacks and snide remarks, I'm not pursuing the Artists with Friends, for notoriety, I already had that in the past, and believe me it's not all what it's cracked up to be...
I have several projects which can employ actors and actresses, directors, writers and producers, with their projects and should any one be so obliged to contact me at the email address I've had forever, gwenmprod@aol.com and the newest email gwenmprod@sbcglobal.net ...I need legal, and accounting support some of which I have, but not enough.. And Please, the emails coming from the crazies out there that I'm receiving that want to give me millions of dollars since they can't spend their inheritance...Stop!
This is a global project...Started with a seed of an idea that needs to sprout and I have been selected as the vehicle with which that can happen...I need funding...ASAP...The 90/10 plan again, perhaps can have real value for the citizens of the world. and their families...
My financial plight, like many, who have reached a certain age with much experience, and have shown companies how to raise their revenue, and then have the CEO's of these companies turn around and "sack" us, and then our society makes it so that it's impossible to find work...An insidious plan that needs to be identified and then changed immediately. I am fully away of the attempt to try amd discredit me, feeling that I don't deserve what I have earned from my past 50 plus work endeavor. Shame on you! And also, the people that continue to hurl their snide remarks which I hear in passing, why don't you get off your fat arses and do something for yourselves and your family. How many college students now in tremendous debt are moving back in with their parents because they can't get jobs and are waiting and hoping for their parents to die so they can get the house. This is what happens in a society stifiled by government and lacks a moral value system. Welcome to Hell!

The TESLA, An Environmentally Conscious Dream Car
Walking down the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, California months back, I was stopped in my tracks, (a true believer of love at first sight), I swooned for the sensual lines of the most beautiful automobile I had ever laid eyes on...Keep in mind, I've driven Rolls Royces' and Jags , both awesome machines, yet the Tesla, can certainly hold its own...I was given the opportunity to sit inside, thanks to Paultette Santiago, Product Specialist, and immediately the word luxurious sprang to mind. I was able to fit my large Michael Kors bag inside the deep center compartment. It's obvious that the designer of this magnificent machine considers women's needs...
As luck would have it, Zachary Urbina, my IT guy, pointed out the accomplishments of Elon Musk (great name by the way), 41 year old CEO of Tesla Motors, who originally hails from South Africa...The Tesla is the type of automobile that will definitely sell itself...I pray for the opportunity to be able to test drive it...And it's Electric to boot!
Check it out! The showroom is located at 3rd St Promenade 1227 3rd St Promenade,Santa Monica, CA 90401

Amazing...
That an educated attorney who graduated from Michigan University wouldn't know what the word ACRONYM meant...Poor reflection on our educational system...Why is it that I feel like I'm being watched, recorded, and I'm teaching, and not getting paid for it?
Just curious, what the heck am I auditioning for anyway? And for those of you that think I'm boring, then don't listen or watch, how's that?
Thanks for all your kind words, thoughts, and support...Let's break through all this bs...and break the dark clouds and let the sun shine through...Oh yeah and those that are advertising for smokless cigarettes, thanks, is that for a prop?
Sincerely,
Gwendolyn Mitchell

Attack Against Senior Citizens in All Fields of Endeavor
You know I hate to make this whole thing about older, or mature people against younger people, though some of us know to what degree agism exists...Particularly in the Entertainment Field, as I had stated before I am proud by the fact that I have lived the many years that I have, and if that upsets some of you, so be it...
You can get up at 4:30AM, excercise, eat correctly, and actually work for a living, rather than slapping on make up and saying your lines if you like...And yes, I intend to do that again...
If you're trying to embarrass me, with the Photos as Gwenn Mitchell born in 1955, all you're doing is embarrassing yourself...Not me...My stand up comedy routine that I'm working on apparently the material got out...Which proves how insidious this industry is and to what lengths those people in power will go to
not to be in control...AND, it is copyrighted, and I have not given anyone permission to use any of it...
I have never slept for any role that I got...I always auditioned...And got it fairly...Some of you are working from a place of sheer ego...The INBD has my likness under a name I used to spell as "Gwenn" , I have evolved to a Gwendolyn, at this stage of the game, and since this is a professional website that professional business people pay for, INBD needs to get it right, don't you think?
I bought my condo myself, OK, I turned down alimoney from my ex husband the father of my 53 year old son who I am very proud of, never did drugs, was in Special Forces, and now works for the FBI, his fahter and I did not get along I didn't feel it appropriate for me to take alimoney from a man I no longer loved, but that's just me...I worked in sales jobs paid by commission only and some of these jobs by the way, I was the only female, and the only African American at that...The only thing I asked for was to go back to my maiden name. Most of the white women in that incorrect ad of Gwenn Mitchell, and why these women are on the website is a total affront and only confirms how racists and sexist the industry is, and that is changing. The women pictured in those ads have been pampered and coddled and told that they're special when they're not. Women of color don't get that kind of protection and support. We have to get out there and hustle all the time. It's the price we pay for knowing that the only way we are going to survive is to be Independent and do it on our own.You Hollywood Types who grew up with platinum spoons in your mouth, God Bless you, and you smile and grin deceitfully and kiss ass. PLEASE CORRECT THE AD, I AM NOT 55, THAT WOULD MEAN I WOULD HAVE HAD TO HAVE MY SON AT 2. I am proud that I am a great grandmother of two beautiful grandchildren, Naomi and Isiah, and, by the way for people not to tell their age can be detremental to their health. You are not giving the people of the world enough credit, they don't care how old you are, they want to be entertained, but when the good guys are always white, then you know there is something wrong with that. It has a pyschological toll on people. But you pampered women whose mommy and daddy's brought you in to this industry without paying the dues, and I'm sure you know who you are, you need to walk in the shoes of the African American, American Indian, the Iranian, Pakistani, etc, do you ever do that, or, do you just keep adopting black babies to prove your humanity?
It has always been in my nature to stand up for the "underdog" and usually that under dog has been women, yet not entirely, gay men and lesbian women, of all color, women who have wanted to better themselves, which is why I wrote the Peace and Love Speech some time ago, and if your point was to try and expose me forget it, it only points up how desperate you are in knowing that the tide is turning in this industry and the people that have been kept out, are and will be entering through the doors that have been shut to them for so long.

Our Plan...
For the citizens of the world is a good plan, it is not without flaws, but I see today, there are clouds and the winds are blowing heartily...Of course power is not easy to relinquish, particularly when it will create global fairness...
I have a dear friend who once said , do you know who the most hated people in the world are?...I told this person I didn't know..."The British!" ...Oh no, how can this be?...The country that gave us the Fab 4 that spread Love...How can that be true I wondered AND i wondered if it was true...Of course not the citizens but the way the government is there...The Brits are good folks, just lik we Americans and of course all the citizens of the world...
Why are we allowing this when we outnumber them, I'm just asking...Questions are still allowed are they not?...
Then I thought about why so many of the British Talent came here to America, musicians and actors and actresses, Dame Elizabeth Taylor for one, it was the last bastion for freedom and liberty...And now it appers it is under seize...However, remember, things are not as they appear...There is a HIGHER POWER THAN MAN...sorry i have to repeat it...
And then I remembered, the Boston Tea Party and what the brawl was all about...HIGHER TAXES WITH NO REPRESENTATION...I understand the Queen just gave herself a raise...God Bless her...
Stay strong, keep the faith and do not forget we have friends in the highest of places...
Thank you!
Gwendolyn Mitchell
P.S. As an artist in my youth, in my 20's, yes I smoked weed, marijuanna, and it expanded my mind...But at some point in my life I realized that I didn't need dope to be creative, the Creator , may be using me as a vessel...For Good...i hope and pray...
P.S.S. Oh yes and about my hair, I have three different textures nappy, curly, and straight, and i apologize if that offends any body...But since the creator made me, I feel I'm blessed. Thanks again. Go and spread Love and Make Love...to your mates...Toodle Lou...
