Ken’s admirable body of work includes his second Emmy® in 2009 for his role in HBO’s critically acclaimed Grey Gardens. He appeared in the recurring role of Hank Hooper in NBC’s award-winning primetime series 30Rock. With over 20 feature films, Howard can currently be seen as Judge Warren in The Judge, and in The Wedding Ringer. Ken Howard is a Tony®-winning actor (Child’s Play) who has appeared in nearly 40 stage productions since his professional debut on Broadway in 1968. His stage work includes 1776 and Seesaw. Among the packed audience were Joe Benincasa (President and CEO, The Actors Fund), Tony® and Emmy® winning composer/conductor, Don Pippin, Joyce Randolph (Trixie of The Honeymooners), Gabriel Carteris (Exec. VP of SAG-AFTRA), David White (NED of SAG-AFTRA) and actress Jill O’Hara. The luncheon benefited The Lambs Foundation. For more information contact: Marc Baron, Shepherd, The Lambs, Inc.
