Info
Laura Bennett was trained as an architect but has since established her career as a fashion designer by becoming a finalist on Season 3 of Bravo's Project Runway.

The Project Runway star and mother of six counts her blessings: Adderall, Ritalin, Tanqueray martinis up with olives, spell-check, mannies-and, oh yes, her family.
