-
Sir Sean Connery was selected by the American Film Institute's Board of Trustees to receive the 34th AFI Life Achievement Award, the highest honor for a career in film.
"Sir Sean Connery is an international film icon. Though best remembered for creating one of the great film heroes of all time, his talents transcend typecasting, and his body of work not only stands the test of time, but illuminates a career more extraordinary than James Bond himself. Sir Sean is an artist of the highest order, and AFI is honored to present him with its 34th Life Achievement Award."
- Sir Howard Stringer, chair, AFI Board of Trustees
The award was presented to Connery at a gala tribute in Los Angeles on June 8, 2006. USA Network will broadcast the 34th AFI Life Achievement Award tribute Wednesday, June 21, 2006.
