An unforgettable evening to celebrate the “Billie Jean King: The Road to 75” photography exhibit with the Billie Jean King Leadership Initiative @nyhistory. And an early birthday party to raise funds to support the Billie Jean King Collection & Education Program. So blessed and fortunate. #BJK75 #squad #BJKLI #birthdaygirl

I was named after my father, Bill Moffitt, who bravely served in the U.S. Navy in WWII. I received his name because he was serving his country when I was born, and my mother did not know if he would make it home alive. To all the men and women who devote their lives in service to their country, thank you. 🇺🇸 #VeteransDay #heroes #gratitude
