Joan Benedict Steiger Tribute
by Betty Jo Tucker

Piggybacking on the recent "Eternity Award" Joan Benedict Steiger received for her remarkable acting career, the folks at Movie Addict Headquarters are paying tribute to her on April 19. During this special episode, Joan will be interviewed about her extensive experience in films, on stage and in television. Plus Adilah Barnes from the Los Angeles Women’s Theatre Festival will be on hand to explain why Joan was selected for this prestigious honor and actor Tyrone Power Jr. will share his reactions about working with Joan.     

Joan’s dozen movie credits include starring roles in A Month of Sundays and The Flying Dutchman opposite her late husband, Rod Steiger, as well as appearances in The Prize Fighter and The Theory of Everything. Her new film, Dead Border, is a horror flick and should be released sometime this year.   

Among Joan’s stage credits are roles in productions like Promises, PromisesThe Beauty Queen of Leenane,  The Octette Bridge Club, The Traveling Lady, The Mind with the Dirty Man, Richard III, Dr. Faustus, and her one-woman show Leona, in which she received rave reviews for her portrayal of hotelier Leona Helmsley.

Joan’s TV career began when she was a member of the original ensemble of The Steve Allen Show, followed by roles on several daytime dramas and series guest appearances. Her other television credits include such diverse shows as Days of Our Lives, General Hospital, Candid Camera, and Dollhouse.  

Clearly, Joan has amassed a remarkable body of work on stage, screen and television in roles covering the classical and contemporary, the drama and the musical.

This Joan Benedict Steiger Tribute airs Tuesday, April 19, at 4 p.m. Eastern Time (1 p.m. Pacific Time) on BlogTalkRadio. During the live show, listeners are invited to call in and to participate in a chat. An archived segment will also be available.
