Wednesday, September 30, 2026 · Film · GSM News

On September 30, the Asian Hall of Fame announced its Class of 2026 inductees, and 99-year-old Chinese-American screen legend Lisa Lu will be inducted as a Cinema Trailblazer. The induction ceremony is scheduled for November 5 in Los Angeles. Her fellow inductees include baseball pioneer Hideo Nomo and CJ Group vice chairwoman Miky Lee, along with Din Tai Fung, honored under Global Family Legacy, and TSMC, under Corporate Technology.

Founded in 2004, the Asian Hall of Fame honors Asian achievement in the United States and around the world. California State Treasurer Fiona Ma is among the prior honorees who will present this year's inductees at the ceremony.

It has been a year of honors for Lu: in June she received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Shanghai International Film Festival, and in 2025, at 98, she became the oldest person ever to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. From her student days at Chiao Tung University in Shanghai to a career spanning both sides of the Pacific, her time on stage and screen now stretches beyond six decades.
