  • "For one night a year during Dallas’ spring social season, the biggest names in town take a backseat to the real Dallas stars — the young patients and survivors who own the stage at Children’s Cancer Fund. The event, which takes place at the Hilton Anatole, is expansive and requires a seasoned professional to manage the many moving parts with grace and charm. Eloquently announcing each patient, emcee Kimberly Schlegel Whitman added such warmth to the evening’s program. Everyone at my table remarked on how calm and confident she seemed at the podium. As always, an impeccable hostess."

    Paper City, The Best of Dallas’ Spring Social Season–Best Emcee

  • “Kimberly Schlegel Whitman is my favorite kind of public speaker. She doesn’t put on her glasses and read a long typed speech from the podium. She understands that public speaking is a form of entertainment. She is intelligent, witty, a gifted raconteur, and a bono fide member of the world about which she speaks.”

    - Dominick Dunne

  • “Smart. Talented. Stunning. Those are the words that first come to mind when I think of Kimberly Schlegel Whitman. The consummate hostess and businesswoman, she has translated her love of entertaining into a mini-empire. From planning a Head of State gathering to an informal beach bash in the Hamptons and beyond, she has become one of the country’s leading experts on entertaining in grand style. This powerhouse is really going places—and watch the world become a better place because of her talents.”

    - Lance Avery Morgan
, Publisher and Editorial Director, Brilliant Magazine

  • “In front of her audience, Kim is smooth, sassy and funny—and she knows her stuff. She gets you with that big smile and a sly wink. You think to yourself: Now THIS is a girl I’d like to party with. She is the consummate speaker: she shares her knowledge smoothly and with a charming sense of humor, never talking down, and always tailoring her topics to her audience. You will learn something and you will laugh.”

    - Rob Brinkley
, Editor, FD Luxe

  • “Kimberly’s attention to detail is remarkable. She knows how to throw a memorable event. Her books give us wonderful insight on how she does her magic!”

    - Monique Lhuillier, Designer

  • “Kim Whitman is the bomb. She was awesome. I loved her. She is smart as whip.”

    - Gail Simmons, Judge, BRAVO TV “Top Chef”

  • “You were wonderful Kim! Thank you so much for doing such a really showstopper job – honestly one of the best red carpet Q and A’s I’ve ever seen – You’re the best!”

    - Leigh Corra, Studio Director, Time Inc.
