Cameo Wallace, Board Member
Cameo Wallace, an award-winning documentary and television producer, has developed and produced successful programming for ABC, CBS, NBC, A&E, History Channel, MTV, Discovery, TLC, MSNBC, Oxygen and Food Network. The diversity of projects on which Cameo has worked, everything from the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives documentary and Swiss documentary Jugend ohne Drogen (Youth Without Drugs), to her involvement in philanthropic organizations as a strategic planning consultant and event producer, serve to join her profession with purposeful ventures. Her company, Cameo Appearance Productions, Inc. focuses on artful storytelling with a redemptive message to reveal truth and inspire change.
Her projects have required direct communication and coordination with domestic and foreign dignitaries, corporate executives, celebrities, volunteers and individuals whose lives inspire participation in humanitarian endeavors. As a consultant, Cameo has also worked with a variety of organizations on strategic initiatives, including branding, corporate partnerships, communications, media outreach and fundraising, and has translated all skills acquired through production to benefit those projects. Cameo has also coordinated and produced several large-scale events, including Presidential Inaugural events, the Intercollegiate Studies Institute’s 50th Anniversary Gala, Pope Benedict XIV’s Mass at Nationals’ Stadium in Washington, DC, the book launch of “Growing Up Guggenheim” authored by Peter Lawson-Johnston, at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and a youth program with former child soldiers from Africa and Central America with the U.S. Department of Labor’s “Children in the Crossfire” conference.
Throughout her life, Cameo has also volunteered with children as a tutor, mentor and activities coordinator for organizations such as the Boys & Girls Club and Horizons Club in Washington, DC. She spent several years as a van outreach volunteer for Covenant House California, working with at-risk and homeless youth in Los Angeles.
