The Foundation for AIDS Research's "Honoring with Pride" gala took place at the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center on June 5th.
The evening was musically directed by Tony Award-winner Ted Sperling (The Light in the Piazza), with Oscar-winner Liza Minnelli (Victor/Victoria, Chicago, Cabaret film) as a presenter and The New York Post's Liz Smith to be honored for her charity work. Broadway star Cheyenne Jackson was the special guest performer of the evening. David Barr and Barbara Starrett were also honored, and Miss Universe Riyo Mori made an appearance.
"Honoring with Pride" is held each year to pay tribute to those individuals who have played a significant role in the gay and lesbian community's historic response to the HIV/AIDS crisis. Featured guests, keynote speakers, and previous hosts have included Dame Elizabeth Taylor, Hon. Mario Cuomo, Kathy Bates, Betty Buckley, Eric McCormack of "Will & Grace," Liz Smith, Angie Stone, Meryl Streep, Marcia Gay Harden, Carrie Fisher, B.D. Wong, and Cyndi Lauper.
