Warrior Project presented The Style & Beauty Suite - a star-studded celebration of service,
presented with love to the wounded warriors and their families.
Blake Lewis, Dean
Norris, Elliott Yamin, Jason George, Jes Mcallan, Joely Fisher, Judith Hill,
Kevin Pearce, Linda Cardellini, Lindsay Arnold and Nestor Serrano were amongst
the stars who co-hosted the Wounded Warrior Project® Style &
Beauty Suite.
The Emmy Awards weekend, the Style & Beauty Suite at
Avalon Hollywood, hosted by Wounded
Warrior Project® (WWP), connected some of the biggest names in
television with our nation’s wounded service members to provide a true
Hollywood experience.
The nonprofit organization, whose mission is to honor and
empower Wounded Warriors, brought veterans and their families to Hollywood, to enjoy a much-deserved day of appreciation
for their selfless and brave service.

Wounded warrior Dan Nevins |
The first speaker at Wounded Warrior’s Emmy Lounge wasn't
a wounded warrior, but a champion snowboarder and traumatic brain injury
survivor Kevin Pearce.
He showed photos of himself on the big screen before the
injury: “Look how focused my eyes were before the accident ” he said.
Kevin Pearce is a champion Snowboarder, Sports Commentator,
motivational speaker and advocate for those effected by Traumatic Brain
Injuries and Downs Syndrome via his Kevin Pearce Fund.
At age 18, Kevin soared on to the professional snowboard
stage, winning over ten snowboarding competitions all over the world, including
four medals at the XGames.
|
"Look at my focused eyes
before accident' said Kevin Pierce |
While training for the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, Kevin
suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury. His ongoing rehabilitation and training has
been an inspiration to both the international snowboard community and fans
around the world. Kevin is the subject of the 2013 documentary “The Crash Reel”
directed by Lucy Walker which premiered at the 2013 Sun Dance Film Festival, and
aired on HBO throughout the summer, and is set for a theatrical run this
December.

The second speaker was wounded warrior Dan Nevins.
Dan Nevins began his military career out of high school
as an enlisted paratrooper.
Following the completion of his eight-year enlistment,
Dan remained in the California Army National Guard while earning a bachelor of
science in business administration from Sonoma State University.
In February 2004 Staff Sergeant Nevins was deployed to
Balad, Iraq where he served as a squad leader.
On November 10, 2004 an improvised explosive device
detonated beneath the vehicle in which he was a passenger, and Dan would ultimately
sacrifice both of his legs below the knee.
Dan credits Wounded Warrior Project for his successful
rehabilitation, positive attitude, "can do" spirit, and more
importantly his passion for helping his fellow warriors in any way he can.

On that date, America watched in horror as
approximately 3,000 people died including hundreds of firefighters and rescue
workers. Many warriors note a sense of duty to volunteer for the military
following these tragic events.
Sept. 11 also served as a stimulus for
Operations Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom, and New Dawn. Operation Iraqi
Freedom refers to military operations in Iraq that began March 19, 2003 and
officially ended August 31, 2010. Operation Enduring Freedom refers to combat
