She knows how to negotiate; she knows how to pitch. She knows how to talk on the phone. She knows how to conduct business without carrying the weight of her personal problems in the office. She knows how to talk to all kinds of people - white men, Black women, young brothers or sassy sisters, family members, business associates, money folk or moody artists."[4] Ali ws a recipient of the Lillian Gish Award from the organization Women in Film and the NAACP/Legal Defense Fund's award for Entrepreneur of the Year.[2] She was a founding member of Theatre of Hearts/Youth First Artists-In-Residence and also a board chair.
