, Najimy’s impact in Hollywood goes beyond the beloved witch. From her groundbreaking HBO comedy specials in the late eighties to her on-the-ground activism, Najimy has been building a legacy for herself founded on feminism and natural-born comedic genius.A proud, “full-blooded” Lebanese actor (“I don’t know what full-blooded means, but I say it with gusto,” she jokes), she’s also an advocate for leisurely Beirut holidays and challenging Western notions of what the country is actually like (“the best food, the most beautiful people, the most friendly people”).
In fact, she loves her parent’s home-country so much she even made up “Lebanese Day” for her daughter’s fourth grade class in the mid-aughts.That story perhaps best exemplifies who Najimy is: an indomitable force who uses her motherly aura, sharp wit, and passion to defend the rights of others.
She doesn’t wait for other people’s permission. She goes out and makes her own history lessons and feminist off-Broadway plays.
She’s jumped out of a plane more than once and become a voice for millions of women over the course of her lifetime. She doesn’t do the on-the-ground work to be lauded by publications or win awards.
