Each year in Washington, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts honors performers for a lifetime of work. The ceremony is held at the Kennedy Center in December. This week, officials announced the names of the artists who will receive the honors for 2013.
They include two rock and rollers, a jazz composer and an opera singer. But we will start with someone who seems to do everything: Shirley MacLaine.
Shirley MacLaine has performed on stage and screen during her 60 year career. She is an actor, dancer, writer and political activist.
MacLaine has been nominated for five best actress Academy Awards. She won the Oscar for playing Aurora Greenway in the 1983 film, “Terms of Endearment.” The character is controlling and judgmental but also very funny.

Here, Aurora Greenway is having a dinner party when her daughter Emma announces that she and her husband Flap are expecting a baby.
EMMA: “I got some good news.”
AURORA: “What’s that?”
EMMA: “I’m unofficially pregnant. I mean we haven’t gotten the test back yet but you know me I’m never late.”
AURORA: “Well. I don’t understand.”
EMMA: “Um. Hmm, if you’re not happy for me…I’m gonna get so mad, if you’re not happy.”
