William Ivey Long Wins TDF/Irene Sharaff Award
It was announced earlier this month that William Ivey Long will receive the TDF/Irene Sharaff “Lifetime Achievement” Award. The TDF Irene Sharaff Awards were founded in 1993 to pay tribute to the art of costume design. Since then, the annual award presentation has become an occasion for the costume design community to come together to honor its own.
Included in the impressive list of more than 50 Broadway shows Mr. Long has designed costumes for are the currently running Pal Joey and the forthcoming 9 to 5. He won Tonys for Grey Gardens, Hairspray, The Producers, Crazy for You and Nine and was Tony-nominated for La Cage aux Folles, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Music Man, Cabaret, Chicago and Lend Me a Tenor.
The awards ceremony will take place on March 27 at the Hudson Theatre. Congratulations, Mr. Long, on this much deserved award.

One wonders, will he labor over what to wear to the ceremony?

That’s too funny, Shirley!
I didn’t realize how many shows Long had been involved in. Quite an impressive list.

I know this is off-topic, but I remember a comment from way back when people were talking about Matthew Risch’s sweating. Someone found it funny that an add on that page was for hyperhydrosis (?) or something like that. Well, I was thinking when I looked at Mr. Long’s picture, that hopefully he’d do something with his hair before the awards. I’m scrolling down the page because an ad for a movie caught my eye - at the bottom is an add for “fabulous hair styles”! Thats hilarious!
