About Gladys Knight

The great ones endure, and Gladys Knight has long been one of the  greatest. Very few singers over the last sixty years have matched her  unassailable artistry. This seven-time GRAMMY Award winner has enjoyed  #1 hits in Pop, Gospel, R&B, and Adult Contemporary, and has  triumphed in film, television, and live performance.

All told, Knight has recorded more than 38 albums over the years,  including four solo albums: “Good Woman” (1991); “Just for You” (1994);  the inspirational “Many Different Roads” (1999); and “At Last” (2001).  “At Last” showed the world that she still has what it takes to record a  hit album, employing the talents of contemporary producers like Randy  Jackson.

Knight has continued to spread her acting wings, making a guest star  appearance in the FOX hit show “Star” and appearing in the film “Almost  Christmas” in 2016, both which were produced and directed by Lee  Daniels. She appeared on ABC’s 14th season of “Dancing With The Stars”  in 2012. In 2019, she competed on the inaugural season of “The Masked  Singer” and sang the National Anthem at Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta.  Knight sang the National Anthem on yet another major sports stage at the  2021 NBA All-Star Game. This past 2022 holiday season she starred in  “I’m Glad It’s Christmas” on Great American Family and received the 45th  Kennedy Center Honors for Lifetime Artistic Achievements along with  George Clooney, Amy Grant, Tania Leone and U2 in December. In addition,  this past March she received the National Medal of Arts along with Julia  Louis-Dreyfus, Bruce Springsteen, Jose Feliciano and Mindy Kaling. This  year she will be honored as a 2024 Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award  Honoree.

Her involvement in other creative undertakings, business ventures and  humanitarian activities has been extensive, and has brought her honors  from industry and community alike. In 2015, A portion of Atlanta’s State  Route 9 from Peachtree Street to 14th Street was officially named  Gladys Knight Highway.
