Donation protected
Please help honor Carole Cook, famed actress and humanitarian, with a golden plaque on the Walk of the Stars Palm Springs. The Walk of the Stars Palm Springs Committee voted its approval - now it's our turn!
Carole, a veteran of stage, television and film, is a longtime and tireless supporter of various AIDS organizations and has appeared for decades as a featured performer in the annual Los Angeles S.T.A.G.E. benefit, as well as the Richmond/Ermet AIDS Foundation (REAF) fundraisers in San Francisco.
She has toured extensively in her highly acclaimed one woman show, DRESS UP, an intimate, musical evening of career anecdotes and reminisces, including recent performances at The Purple Room in Palm Springs and Feinstein's/54 Below in New York City. She also performed at the McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert to help celebrate Carol Channing’s 95th birthday, and the annual “One Night Only” benefit for Jewish Family Service of the Desert, also in Palm Desert.
With her actor husband, Tom Troupe, Ms. Cook received the 2002 Theatre Ovation Award for Lifetime Career Achievement, the first husband and wife to be so honored. Cook received the Distinguished Alumni Award from Baylor University, the S.T.A.G.E. Producers Award.
The Walk of the Stars Palm Springs is located in downtown Palm Springs, California, where "Golden Palm Stars" honoring special people who have lived in the greater Palm Springs area are embedded in the sidewalk pavement. Among those honored are Presidents of the United States, show business stars, literary figures, pioneers and civic leaders, and Medal of Honor recipients.
