The criteria for nomination and induction are that recipients were born, raised, or resided here in New Jersey at some point in their lives. Selection for Hall of Fame induction is based on several factors, including a public vote and whether living nominees are available to attend the Hall of Fame ceremony. Due to the pandemic, the last two Hall of Fame ceremonies have been virtual. Prior to the virtual induction ceremonies, the Hall of Fame ceremony took place at the iconic Paramount Theater in Asbury Park, NJ.

I had the pleasure of hosting one of the New Jersey Hall of Fame ceremonies and participating in 6 others. I am amazed at the quality of talent that New Jersey has to offer, not only in arts and entertainment, but also in sports, public service, arts and humanities. Some exceptional people call New Jersey home, and since the Hall of Fame was established in 2008, I’ve been happy to have these extraordinary people recognized. For a state of 8 million people and those who have or still call New Jersey home, they have all given so much to make this world a better place.
