Tricky position

Tanya Hollander, accused of booking sexy romps for Elliot Spitzer as part of her gig at the Emperor’s Club VIP escort service, found gainful employment managing a yoga retreat owned by the parents of actress Uma Thurman, that operates as as part of the Tibet House U.S, a  foundation which "aims to promote and preserve Tibetan culture." 

The Thurmans, who are Tibetan Buddhists, were unaware of Hollander’s background when they hired her to run the Menla Mountain Retreat in the Catskills  And now they find themselves in a tricky position. Said Birgitte Thurman, Uma’s mom:

We’re extremely troubled to learn of her problems only now, and especially troubled that she withheld what’s clearly pertinent information about her background. Clearly, had we been aware, we might have hired someone else.

When we interviewed and hired her back in July, we had absolutely no idea that she had any involvement in such a thing. She was referred to us through contacts in [New York] as a capable administrator, and it’s an unfortunate situation for everyone since she’s been doing a very good job for us.

Mmmm, wonder if those contacts knew about Tanya’s downward dog, camel and one legged pigeon poses.
