Oscar-nominated actress Mariel Hemingway will deliver the keynote address of hope and inspiration at NAMI Collier’s Hope Shines Luncheon on Dec. 1 in Naples. The granddaughter of Pulitzer and Nobel Prize-winning novelist Ernest “Papa” Hemingway has a family legacy of mental illness, including seven suicides, rampant alcoholism, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and depression. She has written six books, including “Out Came the Sun: Overcoming the Legacy of Mental Illness, Addiction and Suicide in my Family” and “Invisible Girl,” written for young adults about the same subject but from her 14-year-old self’s perspective. Her documentary “Running From Crazy” followed Hemingway as she tried to better understand her family’s history of suicide and mental illness. The actress also suffered and overcame depression. The 2023 Hope Shines Luncheon will be the 15th hosted by NAMI Collier. The event begins at 11:30 a.m. on Friday, Dec. 1 in the ballroom at Arthrex One, 1 Arthrex Way in Naples. Individual tickets are $325 per person and available at NAMIcollier.org or by calling 239-260-7300.
