Diana Edelman is the voice behind Vegans, Baby, a multi-faceted endeavor with a focus on dining that is dedicated to making vegan life approachable and easier in Las Vegas and beyond.
Founded in 2016, Edelman and Vegans, Baby have gained international recognition for serving as a catalyst for the explosive growth of the vegan dining scene in Las Vegas.
In 2019, she partnered with the prestigious James Beard Foundation to curate vegan dinners featuring Las Vegas chefs at the famous James Beard House in New York City and showcase the talent in plant-based cuisine in Las Vegas. She also curated The Farm Stand, the first all-vegan culinary experience at the three-day Life Is Beautiful festival in Downtown Las Vegas.
Through her work with Vegans, Baby, Edelman launched a successful vegan dining month -- Veganuary Las Vegas -- held every January that benefits local organizations and the international Veganuary organization.
She also runs vegan tours in Las Vegas, Asia and Europe. Her Downtown Las Vegas tour was named as one of the top nine vegan tours in the world by Travel + Leisure in October 2019.
A public speaker, Edelman has traveled around the world speaking about responsible elephant tourism (she spent nearly three years in elephant rescue in Thailand), how to be a leader for change using positive messaging and her experience as a female entrepreneur. She’s spoken at renowned events including SEED Summit in Miami and the Toronto Vegetarian Festival.
