Why is tonight so important to you?
“The first and foremost reason, I’m here to support Mitchell Gold and his partner Bob Williams. That means the world to me, because we grew up together–and [Mitchell] is a very important person in my life. That’s number one,” explained the legendary “Ugly Betty” star, Judith Light – who looked stunning in an all black ensemble.

“Also, I’ve been with GLAAD since the very beginning — when we used to do these events in small Hotel rooms with 10 about tables,” quipped the impeccable Angela Bower…. (Ahem) I mean, Ms. Light.

“So to watch the growth of an organization like this and see the kind of work that it’s been doing through the years is very heart warming for me and extremely important for the community.”

*Please forgive our gushing, but this is Angela Effing Bower we’re talking about here. Forgive our start-struckness, but Judith Light is incredibly charismatic and poised in person.
