The Hollywood Walk of Fame is one of the world's most famous public monuments to the entertainment industry, showcasing more than 2,600 brass stars honoring influential actors, producers, directors, and entertainment personalities throughout America and the world. The walk was originally proposed by city officials in 1953 and constructed in 1960, honoring an original 1,558 entrants. Today, it is overseen by the Hollywood Historic Trust and the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, attracting more than 10 million annual visitors. Though it is located outside TCL Chinese Theatre's doors, it is not officially affiliated with the theater or its overseeing corporation. New motion picture, television, music, and theater industry celebrities are honored on the walk each year, with special designations given to select non-entertainment public figures, service organizations and honorees, and fictional animated characters.
