ROBINSON L E G A C I E S Honoring a Lifetime S AG-AFTRA's highest honor, the Life Achievement Award, is presented to members who exemplify the highest levels of career achievement and humanitarian accomplishment. This year marks the presentation of the 52nd Life Achievement Award to legendary funnywoman Carol Burnett, who joins a long list of deserving honorees who have made their mark as both performers and philanthropists. The honorees are selected by SAG-AFTRA's Honors and Tributes Committee, chaired by National Board member Jenny O'Hara. "For more than half a century, the union has bestowed this rare honor only on truly special performers who combine unparalleled talent with a deep need to give back to their communities, their fellow members and the next generation. The committee's choice for this year, Carol Burnett, is a perfect example and an excellent addition to this roster of entertainment legends," O'Hara said. 1968 JAMES STEWART 1976 PEARL BAILEY SAG FOUNDATION/GENE LESTER COLLECTION SAG-AFTR A/GENE LESTER COLLECTION
