Connie Stevens has been selected to receive the Ralph Morgan award, SAG-AFTRA Los Angeles Local’s highest honor.

My dreams are coming true, in that I might be able to bring to fruition some of what she fought for in the position she once held as secretary-treasurer of Screen Actors Guild.”
Stevens is an actor, singer and served as the Screen Actors Guild Secretary-Treasurer between 2005 and 2009. Between 2005 and 2022, she also served on numerous Screen Actors Guild and SAG-AFTRA national and local committees.
