TEDWomen is a TED event curated by TED that focuses on women and women’s issues. TEDxWomen events are TEDx events that follow the live webcast of TEDWomen, and also feature live and local speakers. Our event is called TEDxDelthorneWomen and we are one of the many TEDxWomen events that will happen around the world on December 7th, 2019. We will expand upon the ideas brought up at TEDWomen, while also relating it back to the Women of Los Angeles. TEDxDelthorneWomen was organized by Eraina Ferguson, a tech entrepreneur and journalist. Never miss a talk! SUBSCRIBE to the TEDx channel: http://bit.ly/1FAg8hB In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations).
Georgetta Foreman | Hollywood TV Producer
Georgetta Foreman is the daughter of Two-Time Heavyweight Boxing Champion George Foreman. According to the Washington Post, Georgetta Foreman is one of the top 50 most famous George’s in the world along with her father and her five brothers all named George. George Foreman is not only a titleholder in the ring, but also mastered being a pitchman and „King of the Grill“ for the Lean Mean Grilling Machine also know as the George Foreman Grill.
George started mentoring Georgetta at a very young age. By 15 she was traveling as her father’s assistant during his many grueling boxing matches, teaching her the ropes of the world in sports and media. Soon Georgetta became George’s Head of Media Relations. Georgetta still says one of the most memorable moments of her career was working with her father during the height of the George Foreman Grill sales and being on the ground when Big George signed his legendary 100 million dollar deal with Salton. Georgetta inherited George’s infectious smile, big personality, and hard work ethic. They are currently collaborating on the George Foreman Podcast.
Georgetta juggled her father’s endeavors and her own interests in broadcast journalism. She hosted her own radio show at a Gospel Radio Station KJTX in East Texas that broadcasted throughout Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas. Georgetta later produced and hosted shows on TV-3 Malibu and Pepperdine University Radio. Georgetta freelanced in both production and marketing departments at HBO Sports. She even starred in a Meineke Commercial alongside her famous father. Georgetta continued using her media savvy gifts as a Television Producer for Divorce Court, Judge Alex, and Texas Justice at Twentieth Television and as Senior Trade-Out/Prize Producer with the CBS game show Let’s Make A Deal, and currently produces five scripted court shows at Byron Allen’s Entertainment Studios. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
