On May 15th, 2001 we had our New York launch party for Animal Avengers at Spa. The night included a silent auction, raffle, drinks, gift bags and the sites and sounds of Samantha Ronson and her band Lil Red performing and Marcus Barham as DJ. Among the guests who helped to celebrate were David Boreanaz, Jaime Bergman, Phillip Bloch, Izabella Miko, Gary Dourdan, Jeffrey Ross, Kimmi Kappenberg, Dylan Lauren, Elizabeth Kieselstein-Cord, Liev Schreiber, Jauretsi Saizarbitoria, Kylie Bax and Audrey Quock.
