Creative Community for Peace Honors Industry Ambassadors Amid Explosive Tensions in Middle East


Creative Community for Peace honored TV exec Ben Silverman, Amazon's Phylicia Fant, Mayim Bialik, attorney Josh Binder and Atlantic's Elliot Grainge

Pointing to Marshmello manager Moe Shalizi, his professional partner and good friend, Binder noted the “fake news that a Jew and a Muslim can’t do business together.” Legendary TV producer Ben Silverman, now Chairman/Co-CEO of Propagate, whose shows include “The Office,” “Ugly Betty” and “Jane the Virgin,” also cited the Old Testament example of storytelling as a way of promoting peaceful co-existence. Elliot Grainge, introduced by brother-in-law Good Charlotte’s Joel Madden (they’re married to sisters Sofia and Nicole Richie, respectively), joked that the two pals have one thing in common: “We’re both petrified by our wives.”
