Lee Ann Butler-Owens- known as Lullalee,
(pronounced Lulla as in Lullaby) is a classical composer, author, voice-over
actor, philanthropist and an education activist. Her quest is to ensure that
every child has access to positive learning materials enabling children to
“Find their Special Gift” (LPS company slogan).
Butler-Owens founded Lullalee Productions and Services
(LPS) a non-profit 501c (3), after her personal experience as a flight
attendant flying on 9/11.
She authored “Colleen’s
Dollhouse” a musical audio book supporting the importance of education. During
her marketing campaign and school visitation for “Colleen’s Dollhouse” she
discovered that at-risk children and educational facilities in low-income
districts did not have the tools needed to excel or compete for higher learning
opportunities. Butler-Owens vowed to make a difference by encouraging at-risk
children to read through art, music and entertainment. Her concept was to make
reading fun.
Lullalee strategically
partnered with authors, educators and entertainers to develop programs that
help underserved children facing learning challenges and embraces the fact that
“children learn in different ways” (LPS company
slogan) .
Since 2004, Lullalee has provided Car-Ni-Fairs (Magical Literacy Fair), Storytelling
Projects and Book Grants to over 14,500 children and their families in
California, Louisiana and Africa free of charge.
