“Our event and our coverage preceded the last few years of dramatic, positive shifts in recognition for women in our industry as well as the suddenly burgeoning range of new professional opportunities. We are thrilled to see real progress occurring and to gather — in person — in New York to amplify our honorees’ important causes alongside the stunning achievements of the women profiled in our yearly report.”

“With advocacy as a core tenant of Lifetime’s DNA, we are thrilled to continue our partnership with Variety to honor these incredible women and the causes they care most about,” added Amy Winter, EVP, and head of programming, Lifetime & LMN.

The in-person event will take place at The Glasshouse on May 5, in accordance with New York City COVID-19 guidelines. Each guest is required to show proof of vaccination and present a negative COVID test within 48 hours of the event.
