Gwyneth Paltrow will be honored at New York Women in Film & Television’s 46th Annual Muse Awards on March 20th.
She joins previously announced honorees Jamie Brewer, Patricia Cardoso, Izzy Harrison, Audra McDonald, Jane Rabe and Joy Reid.
“Gwyneth Paltrow embodies the bold, multifaceted leadership we celebrate at the Muse Awards,” NYWIFT CEO Cynthia Lopez said in a statement Tuesday morning. “As an Academy Award-winning performer, she created iconic work on screen, and as founder and CEO of goop, she redefined what it means for an artist to build and lead a global company. Her career reflects vision, risk-taking, and cultural impact both in front of and behind the camera.
“She joins a special group of honorees this year who are pioneers in film, television, journalism, sports and advocacy. Together they represent the power of women to shape the future of our industries,” Lopez continued.
In addition to her Oscar-winning acting career, Paltrow is also the founder of goop, a collection of brands across multiple categories including goop Beauty, GWYN, and goop Kitchen. goop is a fast-growing health-conscious takeout and delivery concept with 13 stores and expanding into new markets.
The celebration will be held at Cipriani 42nd Street and will be hosted by “CBS Sunday Morning” contributor, comedian and actress Nancy Giles.
