The 8th Annual Ed Asner & Friends Celebrity Poker Night was a night of stars and virtual cards and a huge success raising in excess of $150,000 in much needed funds for The Ed Asner Family Center (TEAFC) dedicated to working with exceptional individuals with autism, developmental delays and other special needs and their families.
Emmy award winning actor, activist and autism advocate Ed Asner (The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Lou Grant Show, UP) hosted the star-studded extravaganza which took place on Saturday, August 29, 2020. This year’s event, produced by Dwight Kennedy Productions, was virtual in a unique creative blend in an online collaboration with Faded Spade due to the ongoing COVID -19 pandemic.
