Friars Tribute Nights are dedicated to these individuals."

- On May 5, 1988, Gene Barry was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It is located at 6555 Hollywood Blvd, near Legends of Hollywood and only a just a few steps north of the Hollywood Visitor's Center. Mr. Barry was recognized for his contribution to the theatre as an actor by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, sponsor of the Walk of Fame. As of 1991, Gene Barry was one of only 9 stars who have a comedy/tragedy (theatre) mask on the Walk of Fame.
- The cost of this honor is almost $10,000, and the celebrity is usually nominated by a fan club, fan, family members, or friends. The nominated person must also meet the following criteria: 1) professional achievement, 2) longevity of 5 years or more, 3) contribution to the community. To be honored with a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, the world's most famous sidewalk, is a tribute as coveted and sought after as any of the entertainment industry's equally prestigious awards--including the Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, or Tony. And, because it recognizes a life-long contribution of both public and peer appreciation, it is a unique honor, a permanent monument of the past, as well as the present.
