Support Our #creatives®

By Alan Greenstein

This is all about entertainment, concentrating on my experiences!
I am inspired by creatives because they are able to express and exhibit their views on the world. It is my passion to help a filmmaker bring their project to life – they must be seen and heard. Support Our #creatives is my passion “project.” My blog and this podcast has interviews I conduct with creatives; documents my experiences and those of my colleagues in the entertainment industry; and provides information on various aspects of film, TV, and new media production.

Crystal Starnes: Public figure, Victims Advocate, podcaster, actress – Support Our #creatives® podcast [Originally broadcast on March 18, 2024]

Originally live streamed via StreamYard on March 18, 2024.

The Support Our #creatives® podcast, hosted by Alan Greenstein. Special guest is Crystal Starnes: public figure, survivor of sexual harassment, retired probation officer, founder and CEO of Voice for Victims LLC, podcaster, and actress.

**Crystal's BIO**

Crystal Starnes is a public figure and a retired probation/parole officer. Ms. Starnes received a Bachelor’s degree in Criminology from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and her Master’s degree in Organizational Leadership from Geneva College.
While employed in the criminal justice system, she filed a sexual harassment and abuse case against her employer and judge in October 2017, shortly before the details of the infamous Harvey Weinstein conduct became public. Her decision to bring the case demonstrated a courageous effort to disclose official wrongdoing. Ms. Starnes, a resident of a small Western Pennsylvania rural community, suffered astounding ostracism and unwanted notoriety because of her decision, but also gained respect and support from others in the community for revealing the story. Ms. Starnes persisted in protecting her own rights and the rights of victims. Ms. Starnes won her case. Her case created new case law for future litigants.
Ms. Starnes is the wife of a retired probation/parole officer and a mother of two daughters.
Her husband and she own Voice For Victims LLC. Its mission is to help people out there, who are suffering in silence, to know that they have a voice and will not be afraid anymore.
Ms. Starnes has multiple podcasts and one TV show. She is also an actress. **
