Please give me the exact day and date of the television broadcast of
the 1972 Academy Awards Show.

My reason, this was the day my daughter was born; I am seeing her
again for the first time in 15 years and have forgotten her birthday!

You question can be interpreted in two ways, so I'm giving you two
answers from which to choose.

The 1972 Academy Awards show was in 1973 (the awards are presented the
year after the nominated films' release):

"The 1972 Academy Awards were presented [Tuesday] March 27, 1973 at
the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Los Angeles."

In case you mean the 1971 Academy Awards show (which was broadcast in
1972), here's that information:

"The 1971 Academy Awards were presented [Monday] April 10, 1972 at the
Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Los Angeles."

I hope this is precisely what you need to know. If anything is unclear
or incomplete, please request clarification; I'll be glad to offer
further assistance before you rate my answer.

I wish you happiness in re-connecting with your daughter!

Thank you pinkfreud. You made an old dad very happy for your
exceptional answer. Of course it was the 1971 set of movies. Thanks
again, From a happy old dad, about to see his daughter on his 70th
birthday!

Thank you very much for the five stars and the nice tip! A happy
birthday to you, and may you and your daughter find great delight in
each other's company.
