Animal Chat lick pet person
When I first ‘officially’ met Heather S Michaels at the Rock Against MS Charity Event last year, I knew she had a heart for animals and a kind soul. We were both aware of one another from past red carpet events we attended, but we never had the chance to really talk...ANIMALS. So here we were at this MS red carpet charity event, amid many celebrities, chatting away in a corner about our affinity for fur babies forgetting about the A list crowd surrounding us, lol. Heather works tirelessly helping animals and is a mover and shaker in the animal arena. She is really amazing and something of a rarity in this town and business. She puts her heart and soul into helping our furry friends. Heather comes from Hollywood royalty. Her uncle won several Emmys, creating many of the famous films from the Rat Pack with Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis as well as several Elvis Presley films, Cary Grant films and ‘An Eve with Fred Astaire’, for which she also won an Emmy. Her family created the Flip Wilson Show and the early People’s Choice Awards. To Heather, being a celeb force herself, she
hosts dozens of news entertainment programs on NBC, 60 minutes, ESPN, Inside Edition and MTV. She’s often an analyst and contributor for many of the National News programs, and has had appearances on Greys Anatomy, Arrested Development, Jane the Virgin, and in feature films such as, “A Walk Among Tombstones”. She has produced and narrated News segments on 60 minutes and NBC, and is currently writing a book and producing a Feature Documentary, “Pawns and Co- Conspirators”. It’s amazing how down to earth (and animal loving) she is once you get to know her. With such a busy schedule, it’s a wonder how she does it all... and she does it in heels, with heart and class. This is why I said, “Heather, you’ve got to be my next ‘Animal Chat’!” And She accepted my offer! DD: Heather, you have such a heart for animals, when did you first realize you were an animal person? HM: Daniel, yes... you noticed that right away, my heart melts for these dogs & animals in need. Philanthropy & humanitarian work is so near & dear to my heart, it always has been. I’ve been rescuing dogs for nearly 20 yrs. I’ve been busy as a TV personality and spokesperson, yet I’m always finding that animals are drawn like a magnet into my life, since I was a little girl. I love them all and connect with them, and just want to save each and every one of them. Well this little girl is all grown up, but I can’t seem to stop opening up my heart and finding a way back to philanthropy. I have been featured on many shows and networks like Hallmark Home & Family, CBS and NBC. I’m also working on developing a new program series that features unique personalities - combined with recognizing our environmental issues that need a little TLC in a celebrity driven entertainment format. We can all make an impact, & there are many ways we can do this, inspiring one another to rise up & make that impact.
