BAHAMAS CHRONICLE EDITOR’S NOTE: I saw this post on The Wales Family Facebook page on Saturday, July 20, 2024 that I absolutely had to share with readers of my online publication, BAHAMAS CHRONICLE, which has a huge following among the Bahamian diaspora across the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom as well as in The Bahamas and the wider Caribbean.
The Paley Center for Media announced today that it will honor the visionary Actor, Writer, Director, Producer, Studio Owner, and Philanthropist Tyler Perry at its highly anticipated fall gala in Los Angeles, The Paley Honors. This once-in-a-lifetime celebration of Tyler Perry’s remarkable and enduring career will take place on Wednesday, December 4, 2024, at 6:30 pm at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.
As one of the most inspiring, versatile, prolific, and innovative creatives working in media today, Tyler Perry has utilized the power of his bold and original storytelling to break barriers, dispel negative stereotypes, educate audiences, and bring people together. Tyler started out writing plays, many of which became the inspiration for his films, and has since gone on to create an endless array of bold characters, relatable stories, and blockbuster franchises across the media landscape, including the legendary and unforgettable “Madea.” Over the course of his storied career, he has produced over 2,000 episodes of television, and directed, written, and produced 28 feature films.
Tyler’s presence as a creative force is only equaled by his standing as a visionary business leader and philanthropist. In 2019, he celebrated the historic opening of Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta—a beacon within the community and the media industry overall.
The Paley Center has also convened some of Mr. Perry’s closest friends, colleagues, and contemporaries as part of its Paley Honors Tribute Host Committee. The illustrious list includes Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Ariel Emanuel, Jon Feltheimer, Whoopi Goldberg, Taraji P. Henson, Matt Johnson, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Gayle King, Debra L. Lee, Mellody Hobson and George Lucas, Scott Mills, The Honorable Nicole Avant and Ted Sarandos, and Kerry Washington.
