Wanda Sykes to Receive Herb Sargent Award at Writers Guild of America East Ceremony
Wanda Sykes, the busy comedian, actor and producer, will receive the WGA East's Herb Sargent Award on April 14 at the guild's ceremony in New York.
Her singular voice as a writer, performer, producer and mentor has given us decades worth of laughter and joy,” said Lisa Takeuchi Cullen, president of WGA East. Both WGA East and West opted for a delay on the heels of last year’s five-month strike against Hollywood’s major studios that ended in late September. Sargent served as president of the WGA East for 14 years and was a writer and producer on “Saturday Night Live” for more than two decades.
