Fran Solomon

After family, Fran’s passion lies in philanthropy. Fran is a member of the Cedars Sinai Board of Governors and served as a member of the Board of Directors and past Chair for Our House Grief Support Center, a community-based agency located in Los Angeles.

During her work with Our House, Fran realized a greater vision than local community work. She recognized that communities were no longer defined by geography. “Grief is universal and has no boundary. There needs to be a place where individuals throughout the world can come and celebrate the lives of those they love as well as have a place where those bereaved can be guided through their grief to reach a healthy grief recovery.”

Prior to family and philanthropy, Fran had a professional career in New York City where she was President/CEO of Gruppo Intermoda, Ltd., an importer of couture intimate apparel. Other interests include entertaining, good friends and her three little dogs.

Fran, a certified Grief Recovery specialist, lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Rick, and their three children, Matthew, Alex and Lianna.
