Michael Urie accepts the Catalyst award at the 2023 Queerty Pride50.
Pride Season is in full swing and, last week, Queerty marked our favorite time of the year with our annual Pride50 celebration at New York City’s iconic Chelsea Piers.
The evening was queer joy personified as some of our favorite stars, activists, drag performers, and more turned up to toast our 50 LGBTQ+ honorees who have made a difference in the past year.
Among the night’s highlights was our special honor to actor Michael Urie, who was on hand to receive this year’s esteemed Catalyst award.
Sure, the world may know him best as Marc St. James, Willhelmina’s loyal assistant on the television hit Ugly Betty, but in real life, Michael Urie’s the one running the show.
For 20 years, the Juilliard trained actor has been celebrated for his work on stage and screen, with TV credits like this year’s critically acclaimed Shrinking, film roles in Single All The Way and the highly anticipated biopic Maestro, and an impressive theater career including his Drama Desk awarded performance in Buyer & Cellar, and the Tony-nominated revival of Torch Song.
