Annie’s solo show, Yenta Unplugged unplugs the myths and stereotypes that plague Jewish women. It played to rave reviews and sold out houses in Martha’s Vineyard, Los Angeles, Florida and New York. The show was also invited to the UCLA-Armand Hammer Museum, as part of the Too Jewish exhibition, and will be featured at a number of Arts Festivals in the upcoming season.
Annie has written and lectured extensively trying to correct the popular negative image of Jewish-American women.She was a guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show, having suggested the topic: Ethnic Men Who Reject Their Own Women. Annie was then asked by the Screen Actors Guild to organize a committee to challenge the stereotyping of Jewish women in the media. Annie is also busy on the lecture circuit with her speech "The Good Yenta: Challenging the Stereotypes."
