Barri Lynn Hollander

Happy gratitude month! We're now only weeks ago from giving thanks with the friends and family we love most. Why not start now? Here at Barri Hollander's State Farm we do a gratitude share every morning in our Team Huddle. November is also a great time to get some of those 2027 goals in the planning stages. There's no time like the present. Carpe diem. Team Hollander's mantra this month: "As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them" - John F. Kennedy.

In October of 2023, State Farm® ranked highest among life insurance providers in customer satisfaction for the fourth consecutive year. Call my office today to speak with one of my Life Specialists about protecting the people you love. #askbarri #TeamHollander #GoodNeighbor #StateFarm

I am a native New Yorker but have proudly called the City of Angels my home since 1996. With my father being from Manhattan, my mother being from Kingstree, South Carolina, my brother living in St. Louis, and both my daughters living in Los Angeles, I have an innate love for the many different parts of the country, their native foods, and their baseball fandom. Before joining State Farm 11 years ago, I spent 25 years working in advertising in New York, San Francisco, and LA on both the creative side as a writer/creative director and account side as an account executive. I am passionate about the arts, (especially the performing arts, whether it’s acting, dance, or music), yoga, travel, learning new things, and spending time with my family. In my spare time, I also enjoy playing guitar and piano as well as writing songs.

I am fortunate to have two State Farm office locations, one in Van Nuys and one in Westlake Village. But the truth is, my team and I serve California, Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona. In particular, we focus on all things insurance and financial-service related including auto, home, Life, business, worker’s compensation, and EPLI insurance.

I am a State University of New York @ Binghamton graduate, studied acting and voice at New York’s famed HB Studio, and studied copywriting at New York’s School of Visual Arts. I have been married to Rob Hollander since 1986(!) and am the proud mom of two daughters, one who attended USC, "Fight On!," and the other who graduated from the Berklee College of Music.

Specialties: Auto Insurance, Fire Insurance, Life Insurance, Health Insurance, and Disability Insurance.
