"Each year we give two legends of our business the ICON Award said Roger Neal, and this year we will present  George Chakiris who won his Oscar in 1961 for West Side Story and Margaret O’Brien who won her Oscar for Meet Me St. Louis in 1944 - They will both be given the ICON award" prior to dinner.

Hollywood Museum founder, Ms. Donelle Dadigan said The Hollywood Museum is truly the ideal location for the Roger Neal Style Hollywood Oscar Viewing gala.  Being adjacent to and overlooking the festivities, the proximity allows celebrities and guest to share in the excitement of the Academy Awards themselves,” said museum President and Founder, Donelle Dadigan. The Highlands Avenue was closed off, so guests were shuttled to enter the backside of the museum.
