An American Celebration at Ford's Theatre

For the third consecutive year, this time on July 4th itself, Kelsey Grammer hosts a dazzling array of stars who entertain the nation's leaders in An American Celebration at Ford's Theatre. The television special was taped in Washington, DC, before a live audience that included President George W. Bush and Mrs. Laura Bush and many Washington dignitaries. The annual gala benefiting historic Ford's Theatre in Washington, DC, includes performances by music legend Patti LaBelle, acclaimed actor Gary Sinise, recording artist/TV star Jessica Simpson (Newlyweds), film and TV comedian David Spade (8 Simple Rules), two-time winners of the Academy of Country Music Awards Best Vocal Group title Rascal Flatts ("Melt"), actress Kimberly Williams-Paisley (According to Jim), award-winning country artist Brad Paisley ("Celebrity"), solo songstress, Destiny's Child member and Broadway's Aida Michelle Williams and Harold Wheeler and the American Celebration Orchestra. In a Salute to America's Heroes, this year, in a first for the annual special, six recipients of the Medal of Honor will appear and be presented in a poignant tribute by Gary Sinise. One hundred forty-two years ago, Abraham Lincoln signed legislation creating the Medal of Honor, which recognizes individuals who have demonstrated personal bravery, sacrifice and devotion on the field of battle. The honorees who appear on the program are Private George Sakato, Army (WWII), Private First Class Joseph Rodriguez, Army (Korean War); Lt. Thomas Hudner, Navy (Korean War); and three Vietnam War veterans, Corp. Robert O'Malley, Marines; Maj. Leo Thorsness, Air Force; and Private First Class Clarence Sasser, Army. Mrs. Laura Bush serves as the honorary chair of the gala celebration; Catherine B. Reynolds is the gala chairman; and general chairmen are Mrs. Tom Daschle, Mrs. John D. Dingell, Mrs. Karyn Frist and Mrs. W.J. "Billy" Tauzin. Senator Bill Frist, Senator Daschle and Congressman Dingell join a distinguished audience of political and corporate leaders to share this special evening of entertainment in America's most historic theatre. This year marks the 24th televised gala at Ford's Theatre since its reopening in 1968. For 104 years following President Lincoln's assassination, this national treasure remained dark as a symbol of national mourning. On January 30, 1968, a restored Ford's Theatre opened, dedicated as a memorial to Lincoln's love of the performing arts. In 1975 President Ford became the first president to attend a gala at the Theatre since its closure in 1865.
