People Our Community Members Would Like to Have Dinner With
Every week at The Clubhouse, we pose a question on our big conversation board about what’s been on the radar for our members lately. This is designed to not only spark conversations and encourage collaboration, but to also allow us to better know our community members in a fun and unique way. Recently, we asked what two famous people they’d like to have dinner with.
This question is pretty popular among the masses, from a great conversation starter on a first date, to uncovering what your response says about you when asked during an interview. Whether it’s picking the brain of someone brilliant or fangirling over your celebrity crush, we wanted to know what our community members would say. And we were not disappointed. From the living to the dead, from film directors to technologists and from musicians to authors, below are some of the incredible responses we received.
Reggie Watts and Imogen Heap
One of our members stated they’d like to have dinner with both of them, for an inspirational conversation. Reggie Watts is an American comedian, musician, and vocal artist known for his completely improvised live performances. Imogen Heap is an English singer, producer, and audio engineer. Her work is considered pioneering in pop and electropop music.
Jenny Lay Flurrie
Jenny Lay Flurrie, the Chief Accessibility Officer at Microsoft. With an amazing story about being deaf, and going through emergency surgery for a blood clot, her personal traits and characteristics enabled her to bring “big change to a big company.”
Gerturde Stein and Scott Fitzgerald
Gerturde Stein was an avant-garde American writer, who hosted a salon for artists and writers in her Paris home between World War I and World War II. Coincidentally, Scott Fitzgerald was one of the artists that frequented her salon in Paris.
