Marlo Thomas is an actress, author, and philanthropist who has done a lot of work with St. Jude's. Now, she's launching MarloThomas.com in partnership with AOL - a new site where Marlo will connect with and inspire women and build a community of support. She invites women to tell their stories with video series such as Hero Next Door. Watch the first feature - about Lu Picard of Torrington, Conn. - and then tell Marlo about a heroic woman you know by emailing heroes@marlothomas.com!
Marlo's now on social media, too. Follow her Twitter account at @Marlo_Thomas and become a Facebook fan.
What can you expect from Marlo on MarloThomas.com, Twitter and Facebook?
- original stories, posts, videos, and photos
- conversations, laughs and inspiration
- observations on popular culture and news
- entertaining clips of "Free to Be You and Me" and "That Girl"
- galleries of celebrity images
- and a lot more
You can also subscribe to Marlo on YouTube to see new videos each week from Marlo where she will give advice, inspiration, laughs, and more.
When asked why she's going digital, Marlo says the answer is easy. "I want to step out from behind the one-way mirror of television and have a real conversation with women," says Marlo. "I haven't stopped dreaming; you shouldn't either! It's your turn: What should we talk about together?"
This digital effort coincides with the upcoming release of Marlo's newest book, Growing Up Laughing (available Sept. 28).
