Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation has announced that Palisadian Sonya Rosenfeld, co-head of the television department at Creative Artists Agency (CAA), has joined the breast cancer research foundation’s board of directors.
“Sonya possesses tremendous knowledge in developing partnerships, which is perfectly aligned with our mission to mobilize the public to be active participants in finding the cause and prevention of breast cancer,” said Meribeth Brand, board chair of Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation. “The board’s decision was unanimous and we’re delighted to welcome Sonya to the team.”

A veteran of CAA, Rosenfeld is the agency’s most senior female television agent, representing many of the industry’s top writers, producers, directors, and actors. Since losing her mother to breast cancer 20 years ago, Rosenfeld has applied her talents to raise awareness and support for breast cancer research. In 2011, she shepherded a project with Lifetime to explore the impact of breast cancer on people’s lives. The groundbreaking original movie Five was directed by Jennifer Aniston, Alicia Keys, Demi Moore, Independent Spirit Award-winner Patty Jenkins and Penelope Spheeris.
Rosenfeld has been an active supporter of Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation since 2012, participating in various events, including the foundation’s signature event Walk with Love in Pacific Palisades, where her Team CAA took the Top Team award in 2013.
Team CAA participated once again at Walk with Love 2014 with 37 team members raising $25,043 to support the foundation’s research programs.
“I wholeheartedly support Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation in its efforts to understand the cause of breast cancer and am optimistic that their collaborations with many of the world’s top researchers will ultimately lead to its eradication,” Rosenfeld said.
The Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation and its more than 375,000 volunteers nationwide invite you to Act with Love and become part of a movement to engage the public in breast cancer research with the goal of eradicating the disease once and for all.
