How is a Goddess born? For Nancy it all began with a fertile imagination. The desire to see herself and others like her having a night out socializing in an environment supportive and yes “adoring” of their larger rounder figures. A place for men with a preference for their unique beauty to meet and enjoy each other.

That has been since 1984. The first gatherings were small Thursday evening affairs in a local Queens Restaurant/Bar. A D.J. and a room full of the socially starved, gave birth to what was soon to become the largest network of parties and social events catering to large size people and their admirers in the metropolitan area. Saturday night parties always have a full house of people to meet, mingle, dance and even fall in love, if not with each other certainly with the Goddess who started it all. Parties often feature themes not unlike those in mainstream clubs, holiday events, fashion shows, contests and belly dancers. We are currently Having events in Manhattan on Saturdays, and we are always looking for new locations for other nights.

Goddesses is a family organization with Nancy’s eldest son Joey Walters managing special events and a website.

Nancy has made many appearances on various talk shows promoting size acceptance. Her own cable show is seen on Wednesday evening at 10:30 PM on Queens Channel 35, and now in all NYC’s Boroughs. Issues explored include fashion, music and health.

Known internationally Nancy’s popularity extends as far as Cavour, Italy where she was named Miss Mondo Grassona ‘96 in The International Big Persons Meeting. The Italians know beauty when they see it! She and Goddesses have been featured in such publications as New York Magazine, New York Times, London Times, Daily News, News Day, Belle Magazine, Womans World, Marie Claire and more.
