Broadway producers Daryl and Jordan Roth have been named two of the honorees for the New York Landmarks Conservancy's 21st Living Landmarks Celebration. They join restaurant critic Gael Greene, businessman and philanthropist Leonard Lauder, Phoenix House founder Dr. Mitch Rosenthal, and media mogul Mort Zuckerman. The pair will be the first-ever mother-son duo to be honored at the event.

The New York Landmarks Conservancy honors distinguished New Yorkers from all professions as "Living Landmarks" for their contributions to the City. Founded over 40 years ago, the Conservancy has loaned and granted over $40 million to help people save their homes and communities, which have included cultural, religious, and social institutions.

Jordan Roth currently serves as the president of Jujamcyn Theaters, where he oversees five Broadway theatres, including the St. James, Al Hirschfeld, August Wilson, Eugene O'Neill, and Walter Kerr. Daryl Roth has produced seven Pulitzer Prize-winning plays including Clybourne Park, August: Osage County, Anna in the Tropics, Proof, Wit, How I Learned to Drive, and Three Tall Women.

The celebration will take place on Thursday, November 6, at New York City's Plaza Hotel.
