Twenty Years in the Making: Lee Zarrett Dons the Legacy Robe for 'Harmony'

"To me being presented with the Robe is like joining some sort of fraternity on Broadway. So special to be a part of all of the people who have gotten this over the years. I looked up to them and cannot believe I am in their company."
