Fran Drescher receives star on Hollywood Walk of Fame
Actress Fran Drescher was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame during a ceremony Tuesday, becoming the 2,822nd recipient. She received the recognition for her work in film and television.
Drescher is best known for co-creating, executive producing, and starring in the CBS sitcom The Nanny, which earned her two Emmy awards and two Golden Globe nominations. Her film work includes roles in This is Spinal Tap, Ragtime, Jack, Doctor Detroit, Cadillac Man, and The Beautician and the Beast.
“Fran has not only brought laughter and joy to millions through her unforgettable work on screen, but she has also shown tremendous strength and dedication as a leader for her fellow performers,” said Hollywood Walk of Fame producer Ana Martinez. Drescher served four years as president of SAG-AFTRA, the actors’ union, before being succeeded by Sean Astin in June.
At the ceremony, fellow actresses Natasha Lyonne, Renee Taylor, and Lisa Ann Walters spoke in tribute to Drescher’s achievements both as a performer and as an advocate for her peers.
