Glenn Close Is Proud to Be a Role Model for Young Women

Glenn Close proudly shows off her award while attending the Museum of the Moving Image Salute on Monday night (December 3) in New York City.

The legendary actress was honored at the event by both Christian Slater and Ethan Hawke, who attended with daughter Maya Hawke.

Glenn spoke with The Daily Journal at the event and said that she is comfortable being considered a role model for young women.

“I do. I do. Yes, I’m very proud of that. And, I think that has mattered too. I speak through my work,” she said. “I’m not somebody who has made a huge political stand. I really believe that art is vital for the soul and heart of our country and our culture. And I believe in positive contributions to our collective nervous system.”
