Biography

Julie Halston, a renowned American actress and comedian, initially gained widespread recognition through her notable co-starring performances in the iconic comedy plays penned by the illustrious Charles Busch in the 1980s, within the vibrant cultural landscape of New York City.

As her artistic trajectory continued to unfold, Halston embarked upon a series of one-woman comedy shows, ultimately culminating in the successful Off-Broadway production, Julie Halston's Lifetime of Comedy, in 1992. This groundbreaking achievement earned her a prestigious Outer Critics Circle nomination for Best Play, specifically for that season, and subsequently, a significant CBS network development deal.

The pilot, aptly titled Those Two, featured the talented Harvey Fierstein as co-star. Prior to her rise to fame, Halston had earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre Arts from Hofstra University.

Throughout her life, Halston was married to the esteemed broadcaster, Ralph Howard, until his untimely passing in 2018, due to pulmonary fibrosis.

In 2021, Julie Halston received the esteemed Isabelle Stevenson TONY Award, in recognition of her remarkable fundraising efforts for the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation, a testament to her unwavering dedication to the cause.
