Atoosa Rubenstein quote: "All-American' looks very different today than it did twenty years ago, and I felt that that wasn't being reflected. For better or for worse, young girls get their idea of what is beautiful from the pages of magazines. And so when an Indian girl looks in Seventeen and sees a girl from her background smiling back at her, that sends her a message that she is beautiful."
