“Leslie’s combination of intuition, experience and charisma is legend in the industry. She infuses goodwill and hard-core passion into any project. No one I know better blends innate kindness and take-no-prisoners ferocity. What work she touches is instantly made better— she transforms black-and-white to technicolor.”

“30 years after our first work together, we still talk virtually every day— swapping observations on trends, people, and the entertainment world. Leslie has reciprocal relationships with everybody who can get things done, and she is never not working. I don’t know a more principled executive.”
