New inductees are voted on annually. At each annual event, gifted and promising songwriters are awarded a scholarship called the Abe Olman Publisher's Award For Excellence In Songwriting , named for one of the founding members. Alongside the induction of new songwriters are a variety of awards. Currently, the awards are the " Hal David Starlight Award" (for young artists who have already made an impression on the music industry), the "Johnny Mercer Award" (for artists who are already on the Songwriters Hall of Fame and have a number of outstanding works), the " Sammy Cahn Lifetime Achievement Award" (an award given to songwriters who have done a lot to increase the success of songs), "Abe Olman Publisher Award" (awarded to publishers who have had a lot of "famous" pieces) and the "Towering Song/Towering Performance" Awards. To date there have been 345 individuals inducted into the SHOF. REFERENCES SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
