The actress will be honored during the 18th annual SAG Awards Jan. 29, 2012. It airs on TNT and TBS.
“Mary Tyler Moore won our hearts as Laura Petrie and Mary Richards, our respect as her production company became synonymous with quality television, our awe as she tackled difficult subject matter in film and on Broadway, and our admiration she turned her public recognition into a catalyst to draw attention to critical and deeply personal health and social issues. She truly embodies the spirit behind SAG’s Life Achievement Award, and we are honored to proclaim her as its 48th recipient," says SAG national president Ken Howard in a statement.
SAG cites Moore's 30-plus year acting career across film, television and stage, her producing and her philanthropy for those who suffer from Type 1 Diabetes.
