SAG-AFTRA
The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) is an American labor union representing more than 165,000 actors, recording artists, singers, stunt performers, announcers, broadcasters journalists, dancers, DJs, news writers, news editors, program hosts, puppeteers, voiceover artists and other media professionals. The organization was formed on March 30, 2012 (as SAG-AFTRA), following the merger of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) (created on July 12, 1933) and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA) (created on September 17, 1952). A member of the AFL-CIO, SAG-AFTRA partners with fellow unions in the U.S. and internationally to seek the strongest protections for media artists throughout the world. The organization works with governments at the international, federal, state, and local levels to expand protections for American media professionals both at home and abroad. SAG-AFTRA is committed to organizing all work done under its jurisdictions; negotiating the best wages, working conditions, and health and pension benefits; preserving and expanding members’ work opportunities; vigorously enforcing their contracts; and protecting members against unauthorized use of their work. Screen Actors Guild was founded in March of 1933 by six actors: Ralph Morgan, Berton Churchill, Charles Miller, Grant Mitchell, Alden Gay and Kenneth Thomson. Three months later, three of those six and eighteen others became the guild's first officers and board of directors: Ralph Morgan (its first president), Alden Gay, Kenneth Thomson, Alan Mowbray (who personally funded the organization when it was first founded), Leon Ames, Tyler Brooke, Clay Clement, James Gleason, Lucile Webster Gleason, Boris Karloff, Claude King, Noel Madison, Reginald Mason, Bradley Page, Willard Robertson, Ivan Simpson, C. Aubrey Smith, Charles Starrett, Richard Tucker, Arthur Vinton and Morgan Wallace. Actors known for their early support of SAG (besides the founders) include Edward Arnold, Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, Dudley Digges, Porter Hall, Paul Harvey, Jean Hersholt, Russell Hicks, Murray Kinnell, Gene Lockhart, Fredric March, Adolphe Menjou, Chester Morris, Jean Muir, George Murphy, Erin O'Brien-Moore, Irving Pichel, Dick Powell, Edward G. Robinson, Edwin Stanley, Gloria Stuart, Lyle Talbot, Franchot Tone, Warren William and Robert Young. Since 1995, the guild has annually awarded the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
