The Dramatists Guild Foundation's 60th Anniversary Gala was held at the Ziegfeld Ballroom October 24.
The benefit, honoring fashion designer Jeffrey Banks, DGF board member Barbara Olcott, and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Paula Vogel, looked back at the organization’s six decades of supporting playwrights, composers, lyricists, and librettists of the American theatre.
