"I don’t need to tell you how very popular you are…the Home and Family Pavilion bulged with festival goers eager to hear you speak that day. You were superlative, both in your presentation to the crowd and in your responses to their questions. The Library was thrilled!"

Roberta Stevens, Outreach Officer
National Book Festival/Library of Congress

"You brought great intimacy to your presentation and truly connected with the audience. Your performance was a marvelous blend of helpful hints and warm wit."

Dan Maddux, Executive Director

“Recently, The Woman’s Club of San Antonio, was thrilled to enjoy a superb program presented by Heloise and Michael Quintanilla, Hearst Senior Fashion Writer at the Express-News. Our stage was set with comfy chairs and wonderful memorabilia of Heloise’s life was displayed. The “chat like” arrangement and insights to Heloise’s life enthralled the overflowing meeting room. Attendance at this event yielded the largest crowd to date at The Woman’s Club! Heloise was so engaging, sharing her life’s story, interactions and anecdotes of her mother’s life and even many pieces of vintage clothing! The history of the 'Heloise' column, personal life with her mother, and the charming way she elaborated on family photographs captivated our members and guests.”
