In addition, multidisciplinary artist Mickalene Thomas will receive an Honorary Clio Award “for her transformative impact on contemporary art and visual culture.”
Ronson, 50, has won nine Grammy Awards, including two awards for record of the year – as producer and engineer/mixer of Amy Winehouse’s “Rehab” and as artist, producer and engineer/mixer of his own megahit “Uptown Funk!,” featuring Bruno Mars. He won an Oscar and a Golden Globe for cowriting the Lady Gaga/Bradley Cooper collab “Shallow” from A Star Is Born. Last year, he received his first Primetime Emmy nod as an executive producer of SNL50: The Homecoming Concert.
Ronson has also worked with Adele, Paul McCartney, Miley Cyrus, Dua Lipa and more. His memoir, Night People: How to Be a DJ in ’90s New York City, became a New York Times bestseller and is currently being adapted for film.
Key has built a career that spans film, television, theater, and voice acting. He first rose to prominence as the co-creator and co-star of Comedy Central’s Key & Peele, which earned a Primetime Emmy for outstanding variety sketch series. His recent work includes roles in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Wonka and Schmigadoon! and his bestselling book The History of Sketch Comedy.
The Clio Awards were founded in 1959 to honor excellence in advertising around the world.
