Winfrey will serve as the host and lead the conversation around the designer, his life and career, much as she does in her interview for ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ special on Ralph Lauren.
Fighting cancer has been a key cause for Lauren for more than two decades. He contributed to the establishment of the Nina Hyde Center for Breast Cancer Research at Georgetown University Medical Center, designed the first logo for Fashion Targets Breast Cancer and created the Pink Pony Campaign in 2000. He created the Cancer Center in Harlem in 2003.
