Known for the depth of her passion, her sharp wit and most of all, her sense of humor, she began her career in prose by composing a limerick for the invitation to a friend’s daughter’s Bat Mitzvah, which, of course, was held on a baseball diamond in Beverly Hills, California.

She has become the go-to writer of wedding vows, toasts, Bat/Bar Mitzvah speeches, eulogies and memorials for the stars of Rock ‘n Roll, plus beautiful goodbyes, and the keynote speechwriter for corporations and charities of all kinds, all over the world.

Molly collects contemporary art, practices yoga, takes long morning walks, flosses, and tries not to eat KitKats.

Her words – your words – are remembered forever.

Molly writes dynamic acceptances speeches when you’re installed as an officer of a charity, or when you are nominated for an Industry award – like an Oscar, an Emmy, a Tony or a Golden Globe. The only thing Molly won’t write for you is a ransom note, but she farms those out to Big Willie, upstate.
