76th Annual Al Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner Returns In-Person

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- The 76th Annual Al Smith Memorial Foundation dinner returned in-person Thursday night at the Javits Center.

This year, it commemorated the diamond anniversary of the fundraising dinner. It included a memorial for Alfred E. Smith IV, who died in 2019.

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was the keynote speaker.

Last year, the event was held virtually because of the pandemic. Proof of vaccinations and face masks were required this year.
