New Friends New Life (NFNL) announces that acclaimed actress, director, producer, and artist Lucy Liu will headline its annual luncheon. A tireless advocate for human rights, Liu is committed to raising awareness about this global crisis, especially its devastating impact on children. Liu’s distinguished career spans over three decades, during which she has starred in films that have collectively grossed more than $3.7 billion worldwide. Known for her iconic roles in Charlie's Angels, Kill Bill and Presence and Chicago, Liu continues to redefine what it means to be a leading woman in Hollywood. She is also a pioneering force in television with standout series like Ally McBeal, Elementary, Why Women Kill, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Star Wars: Visions. In addition to her acting, Liu is an accomplished filmmaker and advocate. Her directorial debut, the documentary short Meena (2014), brought attention to the critical issue of human trafficking. As a producer, Liu has championed projects such as Freedom’s Fury and Redlight, a film about the Cambodian sex trade. Liu has also used her platform to educate others on human trafficking through speaking engagements and advocacy work with UNICEF. Liu’s career has been marked by groundbreaking achievements, including her recent recognition with the Career Achievement Award at the 2025 Locarno Film Festival, where she also presented the international premiere of her film Rosemead. Earlier this summer, she received the prestigious Rising to the Challenge Award at the Bentonville Film Festival, honoring her continued advocacy for underrepresented voices in the entertainment industry.
