ArtMolds commissioned award-winning, controversial, prolific and profound sculptor Philip Hitchcock, ALI to design its new ALI Award life casting trophies. Ask why he chose Mr. Hitchcock, Ed McCormick CEO of ArtMolds said, "Hitchcock is a multi-faceted artist and sculptor proficient in a variety of techniques, but he is known best for his innovative and highly unique castings taken from life. In addition Philip is the designer of the coveted LA Ovations Awards that are presented by Theatre LA to deserving LA stage productions each year. So we couldn’t have made a better choice.”

Formerly of Venice, California, now St. Louis, Missouri, but with an international clientele, Hitchcock's work can be found in private collections, and gracing corporate environments around the world. His images are seen daily on television, in films, and advertising. Hitchcock has donated commissions for auction to numerous charities, including the Center for the Partially Sighted, and the Los Angeles Free Clinic. His artwork has been auctioned to benefit The Los Angeles Theater Center, GLAAD/LA, and OUT Auction.

	The ALI Trophy is a life cast created by artist Philip Hitchcock. The statue is is rendered in 'cold-cast' bronze and then patinaed. The base is a glass-green Lucite which has been laser etched to engrave the ALI Logo and the artist's name as well well as the year of the award.
