Earlier this week, we reported that Kerry Washington recently signed a huge development deal. Arguably ABC’s biggest star, it’s no surprise the “Scandal” actress would partner with the network that made her a household name. Washington’s production company, Simpson Street, will develop broadcast, cable, and digital projects exclusively for ABC Studios and ABC Signature. In other words, this is a pretty big deal.

“I believe strongly in the importance of having a seat at the table, which makes starting this production company thrilling for me. It’s an honor to be at a point in my career when I can help generate projects that are exciting, necessary, and truly reflect the world around us,” Washington said in a statement. “I’m grateful to be on this journey with ABC, a network that remains unparalleled in its commitment to inclusive storytelling.”


As a producer, movie star, spokeswoman and mother, Washington is the epitome of a Hollywood mom taking care of business. Of course, the 39-year-old “Confirmation” star isn’t the only leading lady making moves from the household to the big screen to the boardroom. For a look at some of our favorite Hollywood moms who’re making moves, hit the flip.
