ABOUT OUR HONOREES
Juliana Canfield and Adrienne first collaborated at Williamstown Theatre Festival in 2015, where Adrienne directed Juliana in Laura Jacqmin's Dental Society Midwinter Meeting (and which they are still conspiring to bring to NYC!). Juliana then helped develop the role of Woman in Colt Coeur's world premiere of Zürich by Amelia Roper, directed by Adrienne, and was part of the starry 10-person cast which included Paul Wesley, Austin Smith, and Gregory Diaz IV in the 2018 production at New York Theatre Workshop. Juliana is a graduate of the Yale School of Drama and is best known for her role as Jess on "Succession" and as Holly in David Adjmi's Tony Award-winning Stereophonic (Broadway). Currently, in between Vogue shoots and awards luncheons, Juliana is serving as a Mentor in Colt Coeur's Mentorship program.
Deborah "Debbie" DeCotis has been a longtime fan and supporter of Colt Coeur, dating back to the world premiere of Dry Land, in 2014. Ms. DeCotis is a close friend and professional peer of current Board member (and one of last year's PONY honorees) RoAnn Costin, and the two hosted a spectacular event for Still’s launch this past March. DeCotis has over 45 years of financial, advisory and business operations experience with a successful track record of leadership across multiple global institutions and industries, and was one of the first women Directors at Morgan Stanley.
