Variety will present actor, producer and writer Kristen Wiig with the inaugural Mary Tyler Moore Visionary Award on June 6 at the Variety TV FYC Fest.
“Be a Mary” implores audiences to embrace the ethos epitomized by Moore herself: a spirit characterized by boundless generosity, unwavering kindness, profound compassion, resilience in the face of life’s challenges and fearless risk-taking. “Kristen Wiig’s iconic characters and quick wit mirror what made Mary Tyler Moore a bright light in the industry and an inspiration to women,” said Dea Lawrence, COO and CMO of Variety. Wiig will join previously announced Variety TV FYC Fest speakers Jennifer Jason Leigh, Kelsey Grammer, Greta Lee, Dakota Fanning, Ricky Martin, Lisa Ann Walter, Jane Lynch, Drew Carey and Joel McHale, among others.
