By Pauline Rogers. Photos courtesy of Mathew Imaging.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite the usual L.A. gridlock, made even more difficult because of this winter\u2019s almost unending rain, The Beverly Hilton Hotel was packed with more than 800 of Hollywood\u2019s busiest publicity and marketing executives, producers, studio and network executives, celebrities and media, on Friday, February 25th, for the 48th Annual Publicists Guild Awards. The event, which typically comes two days before the Oscars, has come to symbolize the casual breeziness of a non-televised, industry-only luncheon that the Academy Awards began as decades ago.<!--more-->Awards Committee Chair Henri Bollinger kicked off the afternoon with a gracious and class-filled welcome, quickly followed by a reflective moment of recognition for those publicity members who had passed away in this previous year. The tribute included a touching video salute to legendary publicist Ronni Chasen, killed last year in a drive-by shooting that shook the Hollywood film and TV community to its core. Local 600 President Steven Poster, ASC, made his way to the podium and, forgoing his usual opening speech, called everyone\u2019s attention to the huge video screens behind and to the sides of the stage.\u00a0 As Poster skillfully provided narration, attendees were treated to images of a little boy in a sailor\u2019s outfit, followed by a young man in a spiffy suit, and finally shots of another publicity icon who needed no introduction.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 590px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.icgmagazine.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/images\/2011-pub10-poster-bollinger.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Local 600 President Steven Poster, ASC, presenting award to Henri Bollinger<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cFor the man who has spent most of his life getting recognition for others, it\u2019s high time we do something for Henri Bollinger,\u201d Poster said, his words nearly drowned out by the thunderous applause. And, in what became just one of many delightful surprises throughout the day, the ever-articulate event chair returned to the podium, obviously brimming with emotion, to accept a special award for his three continuous decades (without fail) helming the event.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cHe\u2019s in a class by himself. Every Guild member has been positively affected by Henri\u2019s work. Multiple generations of publicists have benefited from it.

As Weissman made his way to the stage, the screens again came alive, this time with tributes from his peers.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 590px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.icgmagazine.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/images\/2011-pub4-Bollinger-tribute.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Awards Chair Henri Bollinger on-screen as part of his Tribute Award Video<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s one of the unsung heroes, a combination of campaign strategist and one of the friendliest guys in town,\u201d observed Miramax co-founder Harvey Weinstein.

In fact, one of the day\u2019s funniest moments came when Hart (via video) asked veteran publicists about their own career highs and lows. The answers were honest and revealing. Everything from informing a famous singing duo they would have to give their Grammys back (for lip-synching), to having a client ask for the words to the National Anthem she was booked to sing later that evening.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 590px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.icgmagazine.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/images\/2011-pub3-Schwarzenegger-main.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger backstage with Local 600 publicist Cheryl Main<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After the tributes, <em>Entertainment Tonight<\/em>\u2019s Mark Steines and Kevin Fraizer took the stage as the official hosts.

Levitan, who said he signed his Fox deal \u201cbecause the studio was much closer to his house than Disney,\u201d quickly got serious, recognizing the pair as \u201cthe quintessential television showmen who couldn\u2019t be more deserving of the award. \u201cThey let us tell the story the way we know how, encourage us, support us in success and failure, and foster a wonderful relationship between a show\u2019s creators and stars,\u201d Murphy added.<\/p>\n<p>Both Walden and Newman attributed their successes to their backgrounds.
