“Through his work honoring the memory of his openly gay<\/a> father, Robert De Niro has not only sent a message of acceptance to LGBT people, but also educated audiences of the harms of anti-LGBT prejudice and discrimination,” said GLAAD President & CEO Sarah Kate Ellis. “He is a tireless advocate who has helped bring to the world LGBT storylines that spark dialogue, build support, and encourage understanding.”<\/p>\n

The Los Angeles GLAAD Media Awards were held on April 2 at the Beverly Hilton. For video<\/a>, photos, and more, visit: glaad.org\/mediaawards\/recap<\/a>. The 27th Annual GLAAD Media Awards are presented by Delta Air Lines, Hilton, Ketel One Vodka, and Wells Fargo.<\/p>\n

They also fund GLAAD’s work to amplify stories from the LGBT community that build support for equality and acceptance.<\/p>\n
