Jerry Lewis, actor, writer, producer, director, humanitarian and all-around funny man, will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award at the ICG Publicists Awards Luncheon to be held at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, Beverly Hills on February 28. Equally funny woman and longtime pal, Carol Burnett, will make the presentation.
Steven Poster, ASC, president of the ICG said, "Lewis is a national treasure who has provided generations worldwide with decades of laughs. Jerry is also one of the main reasons I wanted to get into show business when I was a child."
