History

The
Grammy Awards (originally called the Gramophone Awards) are presented annually
by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States for
outstanding achievements in the record industry. The President of the Academy
is Neil Portnow. It is one of four major music awards shows held annually in
the U.S.; the others are the American Music Awards, the Billboard Music Awards,
and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. However, the Grammys,
usually held in February, are considered to be the U.S. record industry's
equivalent to the Academy Awards (or Oscars) for motion pictures. The 50th
Annual Grammy Awards will take place on Sunday, February 10, 2008 at the
Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA. Nominations will be announced on December 6,
2007.
The awards ceremony features performances by prominent artists, and some of the
more prominent Grammy Awards are presented in a widely-viewed televised
ceremony. Of the "big three" music awards shows, the Grammys are the highest
rated.
The first Emmy Awards were presented on January 25, 1949 at the Hollywood
Athletic Club. The name "Emmy" was a feminization of "immy", a nickname used
for the image orthicon tubes that were common in early television cameras.
Shirley Dinsdale has the distinction of receiving the very first Emmy in the
first awards ceremony. The Emmy Awards trophies are currently made by a private
company with a manufacturing site at the maximum security El Dorado
Correctional Facility, in El Dorado, Kansas.
The statuette of a winged woman holding an atom has since become the symbol of
the TV Academies' goal of supporting and uplifting the art and science of
television: The wings represent the muse of art; the atom the electron of
science. It was created by television engineer Louis McManus, using his wife as
a model.
The MTV Video Music Awards were established in 1984 by MTV to celebrate the top
music videos of the year. Originally beginning as an alternative to the Grammy
Awards, the MTV Video Music Awards is now a respected pop culture awards show
in its own right.[original research?] These shows are presented annually and
broadcast live on MTV and CTV in Canada. Past broadcasts have been held in New
York City, Los Angeles and Miami, Florida.
The statues given to winners of the award are often called "Moon Men" because
the statue is of an astronaut on the moon, one of the earliest representations
of MTV. The "Moon Man" award is manufactured by R.S. Owens & Company in
Chicago, IL, who has been producing the award since 1984. The eligibility
period for the Video Music Awards begins July 1. Before 2002, the VMAs were
traditionally held on the first Thursday of September. It was decided to move
the awards back a week so that it wouldn't conflict with the anniversary of the
September 11, 2001 attacks.
Awarded by a panel of approximately 700 judges from various areas of the
entertainment industry and press, it is generally regarded as the theatre's
equivalent to the Oscars, for excellence in film; the Grammys for the music
industry, and the Emmys for excellence in television. The award was founded by
the American Theatre Wing in 1947 at the suggestion of a committee of
theatrical producers headed by Brock Pemberton, but not until the third awards
ceremony in 1949 was the first Tony medallion actually given to award winners.
The award is named for Antoinette Perry, an actress, director, producer, and
the wartime leader of the American Theatre Wing who had recently passed away.
The first awards ceremony was held on April 6, 1947, at the Waldorf Astoria
hotel.
Since 1967 the award ceremony has been broadcast on national television, and
includes songs from the nominated musicals, as well as video clips of or
presentations about nominated plays. The American Theatre Wing and the League
of American Theatres and Producers jointly present and administer the awards.
Audiences for the telecast are generally well-below those of other awards
shows, but the program reaches an affluent audience, which is prized by
advertisers.
