She was one of the most respected and influential members of the recently dissolved group that was behind the Golden Globes.

Solomon, who was born in Romania and raised in Israel, relocated as a young woman to the U.S., where she started a family and built a career in journalism. She became an entertainment writer for various publications in Israel, earning high regard for her insightful and thought-provoking features.

She joined the HFPA in 1956 and quickly became an active and influential member of the group. She was centrally involved in introducing TV host Dick Clark to the Globes and sealing the deal that led to his production company, Dick Clark Productions, producing the televised ceremony for decades.

Solomon will also be remembered for championing other foreign journalists and expanding the HFPA’s involvement in the philanthropic support of arts, education, film restoration and journalism, using proceeds from the Globes. “Not only did Judy love the HFPA, but she also loved Hollywood,” Hoehne said. “She loved the people she met, the executives she collaborated with and the rich tapestry of films and television that audiences around the world enjoyed.”

Solomon is survived by her daughters, Donna Sloan and Deborah Solomon, son-in-law Stephen Sloan and granddaughter Ashley Sloan.
