Ameena Meer, Author & Creative
Director |
Ameena Meer became a writer when (in first grade) she was voted
"most likely to have read every book in the school library." But
after that it took two decades of working as a journalist, dancer,
editor, Asian-American activist and waitress to publish her first
novel, Bombay Talkie (Serpent's Tail/High Risk, US,1994).
An Indian of the diaspora, Ameena Meer is also one of New York's
most sought-after Creatives. Ameena realized her commercial talent
while working with Neil Kraft at Calvin Klein, where she was given
the opportunity to write the 1994 campaigns for Escape, which led
to continued work on Eternity, cK one and Obsession. Meer's
succinct word choice on the brand revitalizing campaign, "Weather
or Not," for London Fog was an early sample of her spare,
to-the-point style, as is Calvin Klein's women underwear campaign,
"What begins with a T?"; Bobbie Brown Essentials Cosmetics, "It's
your face. It's your choice" and Macy's/Federated INC's, "Don't
Think Twice. Think INC." Meer's most recent work is renergizing on
the Davidoff fragrance, Cool Water and Cool Water Woman. In Europe
and Asia, she is adding a sense of humor to Wella's Vivality
shampoo ("Let Your Hair Live,") and a soul to Koleston hair color,
("Find Your Balance"). Current campaigns include the spring A/X
Armani Exchange, Lancaster campaigns, Jennifer Lopez fragrance:
Glow by J.Lo (Fresh-Sexy-Clean) and Sebastian Haircare.
Meer revolutionized the way Oil of Olay sells moisturizer by
creating an entirely new campaign geared towards the MTV
generation ("Wear Sunscreen. Olay Complete." and "Take Care. Oil
of Olay." ) The positioning, television and print advertising for
Olaycolor is amongst Ameena's work - "Live Life in Color" - in the
U.S. and Europe. The position and advertising campaign for the
relaunch of Halston ("Life American Style"); the Nathan
David/Lycra for Men ("Be Prepared") and the Mikasa Home Stores
("Your Table is Waiting") are some of Meer's commercial work
emblazoned on buses, subways and billboards. She has also worked
on an array of scripts, including DKNY Jeans and the CFDA's
tribute films to Liz Tilberis /Harper's Bazaar in 1994 and
Hushpuppies in 1995. Meer's client list is as varied as it is
extensive and includes Aveda, Elizabeth Arden, Estee Lauder, Donna
Karan, Liz Claiborne, Via Spiga, Garnet Hill, Helena Rubenstein,
Robert Lee Morris, The Limited, Bally, Sony and more. In 1998,
Meer created Shiseido's new girlpower line 5S ("Own Your Mind and
Body") that launched in SoHo.
Ameena Meer's journalism in English and French has covered
everything from arranged marriages to Indian restaurant reviews to
Salman Rushdie in Actuel, Allure, Bomb, the Daily News, Harper's
Bazaar, Interview, Mademoiselle, Paper and other publications. Her
cross-cultural short fiction has been widely anthologized. She is

Vijai Nathan, Comedienne
|
|
In 1997, Vijai
mortified her parents by giving up a career in journalism,
canceling her wedding, and becoming a stand-up comedian- and she
hasn't looked back since!
NBC chose Vijai as one of the Top 10 Comedians in the nation for
The NBC Stand-Up For Diversity Showcase in L.A. Sept. 2004.
Back Stage Magazine named Vijai one of the top ten
stand-up comics to watch for in 2003. She was chosen as one of two
comics to represent America at the Smirnoff International Comedy
Festival in Cape Town, South Africa in September of 2003. Vijai's
TV appearances include: ABC News' 20/20, PBS, The Oxygen Network,
and the BBC.
Vijai's irreverent humor springs from her experiences of growing
up as a "foreigner" in America- despite the fact she was born and
raised in a suburb of Washington D.C. Much of her stand-up comedy
is about growing up as an Indian in America, cultural clashes with
her parents, and the racism she's dealt with as a child and now as
a comedian (sounds heavy- but really it's funny.)
Her latest adventure is her new one-woman show, "Good Girls Don't,
But Indian Girls Do," a funny and poignant exploration of the
struggle to discover, create and claim an Indian American
identity. Vijai breaks every taboo as she exposes the underbelly
of an Indian American family. She takes you through growing up
Indian in a Jewish community; her discovery of sex in a repressed
Hindu household; and how she finds herself along the way. It's
"Gandhi" meets "Pretty in Pink."
Credits:
In Spring (2004), Vijai appeared on The Oxygen Network, The
British Broadcasting Company's "Desi DNA" and was part of the
cover story for India Abroad's extensive article on the
South Asian American comedy scene. Vijai was chosen as one of two
comics to represent America at the Smirnoff International
Comedy Festival is Cape Town South Africa in September of
2003. She was featured on ABC News' 20/20 in May 2003

taped a "Voice of America" segment on ethnic comics that will be
aired internationally. Last month, Back Stage chose
Vijai as one of the top ten stand-up comics to watch for in 2003
in its annual comedy issue.

Festival, the Chicago Comedy Festival, and the Boston Comedy
Festival; she was a finalist in the Gilda's Club Laffoff in March
