A new class of inductees will receive bronze stars on the Pittsburgh Walk of Fame this fall.

“Everyone involved in creating this visitor attraction is delighted with the choice of these ten honorees,” said Nancy Polinsky Johnson, founder and executive director of the nonprofit Pittsburgh Walk of Fame. “This dynamic group really represents the diversity of the talented people who have come out of southwestern Pennsylvania and made a noteworthy mark on American culture. And that’s what this walk is designed to celebrate.”

Each star is accompanied by a narrative plaque that describes the inductee’s contribution and ties to the Pittsburgh region.

Lemieux will appear at the induction ceremony in person, and other individuals will be there to accept the honor for the other inductees.

The nomination process for the inductees was public, and then a curated list was sent to a selection committee of nearly 150 leaders from colleges and universities, cultural institutions, news outlets, historical societies, chambers of commerce, community development associations, and visitors bureaus from the 10-county southwestern Pennsylvania area.
