Recognize Liza Minnelli with the Kennedy Center Honor

The Issue

Dear Kennedy Center Honors,


Liza Minnelli’s fans worldwide are continually dismayed that your organization has overlooked her.

In film, on stage, and on television, Liza has won critical acclaim, millions of fans, and recognition from her peers in show business.

She has received the industry’s highest honors including the Academy Award for her landmark performance in Cabaret, multiple Tony Awards, a Grammy Legend Award, an Emmy, and two Golden Globes.

Liza is considered one of history's most exciting concert performers, electrifying audiences around the world and setting records at the world’s most prestigious venues including two record-breaking stints at Carnegie. Both of these landmark concerts were recorded and are among the music industry's most highly praised live concert recordings.

Throughout her lifetime, Liza has supported various charities and causes including LGBTQ+ rights, HIV/AIDS awareness, and arts education. Her well-known generosity of spirit, enthusiasm, and commitment to her craft are unequaled.

We hope you will agree that Liza Minnelli deserves to take her place among the other celebrated artists honored by the Kennedy Center.
