Timeline
Lifetime Television and Renée Zellweger produced the film Living Proof which follows the true story of Lilly Tartikoff Karatz and Ronald Perelman's efforts to raise money for Dr. Dennis Slamon's cutting-edge science. The film is also based on the book HER-2 written by Robert Bazell, which chronicles Dr. Slamon's development of the drug Herceptin. The film aired on the Lifetime Channel in October 2008 during Breast Cancer Month.
In October 2003, Lilly, Yves Carcelle (of Louis Vuitton) and Bob and Suzanne Wright co-chaired the first Annual Louis Vuitton United Cancer Front Gala to raise unrestricted funds for 35 of the most promising scientists to further the scientific discovery of breakthrough cancer therapies. In November 2004, along with Carcelle, the Wrights, Kelly and Ron Meyer (of Universal Studios), and Laura Ziskin, she co-chaired the second Annual Louis Vuitton United Cancer Front Gala. She became a Board Member of the Museum of Contemporary Art. She and her daughter Calla own The Colony Café, a Los Angeles restaurant.
In 2001, she launched the United Cancer Front. Dr. Slamon is the organization's Chief Scientific Director. Like those funds raised to help expedite the development of Herceptin, the United Cancer Front helped to raise badly needed, unrestricted funds to accelerate scientific discovery and delivery of breakthrough cancer therapies. In October 2000 in Washington, D.C., she received the Hope Award from the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship. In 2002 NCCS created the Lilly Tartikoff Hope Award to honor, remember and celebrate all whose lives have been touched by cancer.
In 1982, Lilly Samuels married Brandon Tartikoff, Chairman of Entertainment for NBC. They had two daughters, Calla Lianne and Elizabeth Justine. In 1991, Calla, aged 8, suffered a severe brain injury in a car accident. She received intense therapy in order to walk and speak again, while Brandon received chemotherapy for the third time for Hodgkin's Disease. After a long illness, Brandon died on August 27, 1997, aged 48. In November 2009, she married Bruce Karatz, an American homebuilder and philanthropist.
She co-founded the EIF Revlon Run/Walk For Women in Los Angeles with Revlon and the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF) in 1993 and the EIF Revlon Run/Walk For Women in New York in 1998. Since then there is an EIF Revlon Run/Walk in both Los Angeles and New York every year which continues to raise significant funds to advance cancer research. In 1997, she co-created the National Women's Cancer Research Alliance (NWCRA) along with EIF and seven leading scientists from around the nation. In 1998, she created, with EIF and the QVC shopping channel, the international "Cure By The Shore". Originally set at the International Cannes Film Festival, the event was hosted in Monte Carlo, Principality of Monaco in 2001. She partnered with Katie Couric and EIF to form the National Colorectal Cancer Research Alliance (NCCRA) in March 2000.
In 1990, along with Ronald O. Perelman, Chairman and CEO of Revlon, she created the Revlon/UCLA Women's Cancer Research Program under the direction of Dr. Dennis Slamon. The annual Fire & Ice Ball in Hollywood was also established in 1990 to raise funds for this program. These funds were used to rapidly advance clinical trials which led to a new U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug, Herceptin, which increases responses and survival in women with the most aggressive form of breast cancer.
Lilly Tartikoff Karatz (née Samuels; born June 23, 1953 in Los Angeles, California) is an American activist, socialite, restaurateur and breast cancer fundraiser.
