Fitness Guru Leads Off 'Memory Walk' "Fitness guru leads off 'Memory Walk'" (Santa Monica Daily Press, October 2, 2003) Sonki Hong, founder of Sonki Fitness, has been selected to lead thousands of people during the warm-up session for Saturday's Alzheimer’s Association’s Memory Walk at USC. “Alzheimer’s disease affects over 4 million Americans and many things about the disease remain a mystery,” said Hong, a master fitness trainer certified through the U.S. Military Academy. “I’m honored to be part of this wonderful event that raises money to help those with this disease, their families and caregivers.” Some of the celebrity hosts of Memory Walk include: David Hyde Pierce (Frasier); Shelley Fabares (Coach); Steve Edwards (KTTV’s Good Day LA and Memory Walk emcee); Victor Garber (Alias); Hector Elizondo (Chicago Hope) and Sharon Lawrence (NYPD Blue). The Sonki Fitness Team, who recently raised the most amount of money by any team at the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life race in Santa Monica, will try to match that feat again at Memory Walk. In addition to his five World Fitness championships, Hong is a top graduate in physical fitness from West Point, a Presidential Fitness Award recipient and an Academic All American. He has trained at the U.S. Air Assault School, where he graduated at the top of his class with distinguished honors, the U.S. Airborne School and the U.S. Army Intelligence School. “We are thrilled that Sonki will be with us to help prepare and motivate the walkers for our signature event,” said Pam Kile, Memory Walk team coordinator. .

  • Actors' Stories Are a SAG Awards® Tradition
    Actors' Stories are a SAG Awards® Tradition When the first Screen Actors Guild Awards® were presented on March 8, 1995, the ceremony opened with a speech by Angela Lansbury introducing the concept behind the SAG Awards and the Actor® statuette. During her remarks she shared a little of her own history as a performer: "I've been Elizabeth Taylor's sister, Spencer Tracy's mistress, Elvis' mother and a singing teapot." She ended by telling the audience of SAG Awards nominees and presenters, "Tonight is dedicated to the art and craft of acting by the people who should know about it: actors. And remember, you're one too!" Over the Years This glimpse into an actor’s life was so well received that it began a tradition of introducing each Screen Actors Guild Awards telecast with a distinguished actor relating a brief anecdote and sharing thoughts about what the art and craft mean on a personal level. For the first eight years of the SAG Awards, just one actor performed that customary opening. For the 9th Annual SAG Awards, however, producer Gloria Fujita O'Brien suggested a twist. She observed it would be more representative of the acting profession as a whole if several actors, drawn from all ages and backgrounds, told shorter versions of their individual journeys. To add more fun and to emphasize the universal truths of being an actor, the producers decided to keep the identities of those storytellers secret until they popped up on camera. An August Lineage Ever since then, the SAG Awards have begun with several of these short tales, typically signing off with his or her name and the evocative line, "I Am an Actor™." So far, audiences have been delighted by 107 of these unique yet quintessential Actors' Stories.
