Andrews will discuss her television career at the 6:30 PM event, according to the Paley Center's website. A question-and-answer session will also be part of the evening, and signed copies of her newest children's book, "Julie Andrews' Collection of Poems, Songs, and Lullabies," will be available in advance of its official release.

Andrews had major TV success in the 1957 musical "Cinderella." She also appeared in variety specials with Carol Burnett and her own Emmy-winning variety series, "The Julie Andrews Hour." Her dramatic TV roles include "Our Sons" and "On Golden Pond."

Julie Andrews — who was born in Surrey, England — starred on Broadway in the original productions of The Boyfriend, My Fair Lady and Camelot, the stage version of Victor/Victoria, and in the Off-Broadway Stephen Sondheim revue, Putting It Together. She won an Academy Award for her work in "Mary Poppins" and Oscar nominations for "The Sound of Music" and "Victor/Victoria."
