The Tony Awards have been an important part of the Broadway community since their inception in 1947. Winning a Tony is considered one of the highest honors in the theater industry.
The awards created by the American Theatre Wing during the post-war years. Theater director and producer Brock Pemberton, the professional partner of co-founder Antoinette Perry, is credited with coining the name the Tonys and hosted the first edition of the ceremony which was held at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in midtown Manhattan on 6 April 1947.
