"John's stardom is based not only upon his enormous talent, but an irresistible combination of unpretentious appeal, innate skill, intensity, humor and grace," states Museum Director Rochelle Slovin. "We are delighted to salute and pay tribute to this terrific actor."

The highlight of the evening, as always, was the screening of moments from our honoree's vast and diverse career, presented by a stellar group of friends and colleagues. Kathy Bates, James Gandolfini, Kelly Preston, Kyra Sedgwick, Jeff Conaway, Didi Conn, Ron Pallilo, Jeremy Piven and Oprah Winfrey were on hand to salute John.
