Beals’s L Word Book Benefits Shepard Fndn.

 


JENNIFER BEALS X390 (COURTESY) | ADVOCATE.COM

Jennifer Beals’s new book of photos from her six years starring on The L Word will be released in January, and proceeds from the book will go to benefit several different charities, including the Matthew Shepard Foundation.

In a press release announcing the book, due in January, Beals wrote, “During the six years we were shooting The L Word, I kept a photographic journal of the cast and crew, born out of a profound desire to create a bulwark against my rapidly eroding memory. It was an era of my life I was eager to preserve: I wanted to remember the cast, the readthrus, the dinners, the rehearsals — everything. I took pictures and saved my scripts, call sheets, and memos and organized them every year. I used them for reference as the seasons moved on, but frankly I held on to them because I knew I would get a kick out of looking at them as the years passed. Mostly, I wanted to remember the joy, because no matter where the story lines went, we always managed to have fun.”
