The Hollywood Times Female Founder with Valerie Milano and Host Catherine Gray Ep. 472

Today on the Invest In Her Podcast, host Catherine Gray sits down with Valerie Milano, a respected Senior Editor and entertainment critic at The Hollywood Times. With a journalism career spanning publications such as Communications Daily, Discover Hollywood, Hollywood Today, Television International, and Video Age International, Valerie brings decades of experience covering film, television, music, and cultural events. Beyond media, she is deeply committed to community service and advocacy, volunteering with organizations including Human Rights Campaign, LAMBDA Legal, and The LGBTQ Center of the Desert. A longtime member of the Los Angeles Press Club, Valerie is also known for her ability to connect people, build community, and foster meaningful conversations—often from her Palm Springs home, where she hosts gatherings for creatives and changemakers.

In this episode, Catherine and Valerie explore the evolving role of women in media, the importance of amplifying emerging voices in entertainment, and how The Hollywood Times differentiates itself by spotlighting up-and-coming talent rather than chasing clickbait headlines. Valerie shares behind-the-scenes insights from major film festivals, including the Palm Springs International Film Festival, and reflects on her years helping organize the Television Critics Association Press Tours. The conversation also dives into Valerie's passion for philanthropy, LGBTQ+ advocacy, and creating safe, inclusive communities—particularly in Palm Springs, a long-standing cultural hub for artists and activists alike. Listeners will come away inspired by Valerie's commitment to storytelling with heart, service-driven leadership, and the power of media to elevate voices that shape culture and drive social progress.
