Daniel Radcliffe, Whoopi Goldberg among Tony Awards presenters
Even though Daniel Radcliffe wasn't nominated for a Tony Award, the star of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" is proving to be a good sport by agreeing to present awards to others.
His name was on the first list of presenters and performers announced for the ceremony to be telecast by CBS on June 12. Others include Whoopi Goldberg, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Chris Rock, Alec Baldwin, Samuel L. Jackson, Kelsey Grammer, Viola Davis, Vanessa Redgrave, James Earl Jones, Harry Connick Jr., Christie Brinkley, David Hyde Pierce, Marg Helgenberger, Matthew Broderick, Angela Lansbury, Jim Parsons, Joel Grey, Patrick Wilson and Robert Morse.
Neil Patrick Harris will host the Tonys ceremony, to be held at the Beacon Theater in New York City.

Superb just as DR has done at all the stage award shows this season and as he did the season he was on B'way for Equus. Very graciuos and clearly glad to be part of the community.
Tony folks please add Robert Sean Leonard to your list of presenters. Would be great if he was paired with Robin Williams!
