“These strong-voiced women are authors, researchers, mentors and activists: the kind of women who will shape America's new century...”

-Newsweek Magazine cover article profiling “Women Shaping The 21st Century” Tiffany was one of the women selected.


“Tiffany is the Patron Saint of Short Filmmakers.” John Cooper, Director of Programming, Sundance Film Festival


“As founder of the Webbys, Shlain has pulled off an achievement that might seem to merit an award

all of its own.” The Guardian (UK)


“Tiffany Shlain is a tornado of enthusiasm.” San Jose Mercury News


“Peter Coyote wryly narrates the cleverly written and edited piece that shares a similar smart tone with Shlain's "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness," a meditation on a woman's right to choose.”    Los Angeles Times


“This child of the counterculture now helps to decide what’s hot in cyberspace.”   USA Today


"Tiffany Shlain’s film, “Life, Liberty & The Pursuit of Happiness,” is a brilliantly woven pastiche that combines archival and original footage in a highly amusing but incisive examination of the fight for reproductive choice." -- Time Out New York


“Short films typically give you a glance into the talent and capabilities of a filmmaker, and based on The Tribe, I'd say Director Tiffany Shlain is definitely one to watch.”    DVD Magazine Review


“"As founder of the Webby Awards, an annual competition that determines the world's best Web sites, Ms. Shlain has become one of the foremost arbiters of Internet taste and etiquette."  The Globe and Mail (Canada)


“The Tribe is a brilliant, irreverent, wry and buoyant film... The film is a stunning achievement and one of this year's biggest and most worthy hits. I love this film and so do audiences.”

John Columbus, Founder and Director, Black Maria Film Festival


“With a combination of charm, persistence and an eye for what’s hot, Shlain has turned The Webby Awards into the internet equivalent of the Oscars.”    The San Francisco Chronicle


Tiffany was amazing and the women would have done Q & A all night if the time allowed. Her DVD sales sold out in 15 minutes with many people still in line --the night was a major success!                           Philadelphia Dinner Keynote
