Things to know about me: I am an experienced leader with a wicked sense of humor and the belief that work should be fun as well as productive. Being curious is the trait I’m the most proud of. I believe in the transformative power of design. I live in New York but love the tropics and the desert. My dad was a tool-and-die maker and my mother was a beautician. I believe that the key to successful working relationships is mutual respect.
I believe in the POWER of events to shape opinion, inform brand communication, and inspire devotion. As a creative director who can write, and a writer with formal training in design and the theater, I see the BIG PICTURE and am able to manage every step of the process from ideation to production.

This week, the ladies sit down with Noelle Giddings, an immensely talented artist whose tremendous career has taken her from being one of the first female comic book artists to Beth’s go-to artist for creating bespoke, set-specific ‘cleared’ art of the highest quality.
The Interview with Noelle begins at Time Code: 6:36.

Welcome to Decorating the Set: From Hollywood to Your Home with Beth Kushnick! Have you ever been watching your favorite TV show and thought, I would love to have that couch or, that bedroom paint color would look perfect in my room? Of course you have, we all have. More and more, our favorite TV shows and movies are influencing our design choices in the real world. This week, Beth and Mike sit down with Cian O’Driscoll, founder of the e-commerce website, Seen on Set, to discuss how TV & movies are influencing our real world décor!
The Interview with Cian begins at Time Code: 6:38.
GUEST BIO: CIAN O’DRISCOLL
Cian grew up with a deep appreciation and love for the immersive world of film. Later this was accompanied by a passion for art and design. Upon graduation with bachelors and masters degrees in Architecture, Cian set up a blog that focused on movie and TV show set design and decoration. This quickly grew into a business where visitors could find and buy the furniture and decor they see on the set of their favourite movie or TV show. The next five years were met with the trials and tribulations faced by many online startups. Raising funding rounds, acquiring talent, maintaining accelerated growth, the list goes on. Although Seen On Set did not turn out the way Cian had hoped, he now looks back at this tough journey with a sense of pride and accomplishment – hoping one day to rekindle his entrepreneurial spirit.Look back at Seen On Set’s work by following their Instagram Account: @seen.on.set

Welcome to Decorating the Set: From Hollywood to Your Home with Beth Kushnick! Beth recently got a chance to work Benjamin Gillespie, the founder and artist behind the custom lighting design studio, Ovuud. As soon as she met him, she knew she needed to speak with him on the podcast. So, this week, Beth and Mike sit down with Ben to discuss his work, his path to becoming a designer and everything that goes into making his wonderful custom lighting pieces.
The Interview with Ben begins at Time Code: 2:07.
GUEST BIO:
OVUUD evolved from the desire to keep design simple yet interesting. Through meticulous selection of materials and painstaking attention to layout, OVUUD provides custom lighting and furniture that gives a captivating visual impression without being overwhelming.
OVUUD is owned and operated by Benjamin Gillespie – a Philadelphia based lighting and furniture designer. The stylistically pure aesthetic of OVUUD flows naturally from Benjamin’s background in carpentry, metalworking, and engineering. This combination results in a diverse set of Scandinavian-inspired pieces that are individually distinctive yet cohesive as a collection. The primary focus of OVUUD is to utilize next-generation lighting technology to its fullest potential, thereby unlocking new approaches to how a lamp can look, feel, and function.
Each piece is designed by hand in Benjamin’s studio in Philadelphia and can be custom tailored to any unique set of criteria. Each piece is also fabricated from locally sourced materials – including Oak, Ash, and Walnut. Benjamin welcomes you to explore what OVUUD has to offer and see what makes the forward-thinking lighting and furniture design special.

To expand the Brown Jordan brand, Elton has secured collaborations with category-defining designers like industry icons Ann Verring, Richard Fringier and Michael Smith.

Welcome to Decorating the Set: From Hollywood to Your Home with Beth Kushnick! Have you ever wondered how a film or TV show gets permission to shoot inside someone’s home or business? This is location scouting. This week, Beth and Caroline sit down with location manager and long time friend of Beth’s, Monte Farber!
GUEST BIO:
Monte Farber was born in Brooklyn, NY. He studied comparative religion and became interested in astrology in 1974 when he met his future wife and artistic collaborator, Amy Zerner. “Amy was studying astrology and I was studying Amy, so I learned astrology! It became our language of love.”
Farber’s desire to make astrology understood and accessible to a broad audience led him to devise books, book/card sets, and unique kits that also made other esoteric systems accessible, such as the tarot, alchemy, meditation, shamanism, psychic development, and relationships.
Farber is now the world’s foremost creator of interactive personal guidance systems. Monte has over two million copies of his 40 books, divination systems, DVDs and Meditation CDs published around the world in fourteen languages by Sterling, St.Martin’s Press, Simon & Schuster, Penguin Books, Chronicle Books, Harper Collins, Tuttle Publishing, U.S. Games, and other publishers.
He has licensed six of his interactive personal guidance systems to myLifetime.com, LifetimeTV’s popular website. Starting in 2008, Monte made uncannily accurate – more than 80% correct- psychic predictions about world events, the economy and specific stocks every few months on dated-for-verification video clips interviewed by Alix Steele for Jim Cramer’s popular financial website www.TheStreet.com.
Living in the exclusive Hamptons area of Long Island,New York, he has personally counseled many of the celebrities and business elite who know him as “The Best Astrologer in The Hamptons” (Dan’s Papers). His remarkable insights and down to-earth advice have been endorsed by leading visionary authors and company executives who use his unique skills as part of their important decision-making mix.
