Attendees joined Event Tennis Chair, Tony Award nominee and Emmy Award winner Liz Callaway (Baby, Cats, The Spitfire Grill), and Event Golf Chair, Tony Award nominee and Golden Globe winning actor Peter Gallagher (Guy and Dolls, The O.C., Covert Affairs) for summer sport. 2012 Tony Award nominee Norm Lewis (The Gershwins' Porgy & Bess, The Little Mermaid, Les Misérables) joined in the fun on the courts along with Anthony Nunziata of the singing duo Will & Anthony Nunziata, and Aaron Tveit (Next to Normal, Catch Me If You Can, Les Misérables – film set for December 2012 release) joined Peter and guests for golf.

"We are so grateful to Peter, Liz and a generous group of contributors-from inside and outside our creative community-who came together to support The Lillian Booth Actors Home. Our Home is a National Treasure of talented artists under one roof, and it's truly wonderful that so many support it," said Joe Benincasa, Fund President & CEO.

Following afternoon golf and tennis, Peter Gallagher greeted guests for an evening pre-dinner cocktail reception, where he sang selections from Guys & Dolls, accompanied by David Lewis.
