New York Stage And Film Will Honor Diana Dimenna And Tom Hulce At Annual Winter Gala
New York Stage and Film is thrilled to announce that its annual Winter Gala will honor six-time Tony Award-nominated producer and philanthropist Diana DiMenna, and Academy Award and four-time Golden Globe-nominated and Tony Award-winning actor and producer Tom Hulce. The Winter Gala, a fundraising event to support New York Stage and Film's year-round theater and film development initiatives, will be held on Sunday, December 8, 2019 at The Ziegfeld Ballroom (141 West 54th Street, New York City). For more information on New York Stage and Film, please visit www.newyorkstageandfilm.org.
The evening includes cocktails, an auction, dinner, and entertainment from special guests in celebration of Diana DiMenna and Tom Hulce.
"This year we are excited to be honoring two forces in the theater, who have developed works that have been seen at New York Stage and Film, on Broadway, and beyond," said Artistic Director Christopher Burney. "Between Diana DiMenna's philanthropic and theatrical accomplishments, and Tom Hulce's storied career on stage, screen, and behind-the-scenes, audiences have gained a greater understanding about where we've come from as a society and what connects us all."

Serving as Gala Vice Chairs are Rebecca Carpenter Mayer & Max Mayer, Lauren B.
