Johnny Bench was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in January 1989. In late 1998, The Sporting News said he is undoubtedly the greatest catcher ever and named him the 16th greatest player of all time. His honors include National League Rookie of the Year in 1968, National League Most Valuable Player in 1970 and 1972 and World Series MVP in 1976. He is a 14-time All-Star and received 10 Gold Gloves. In 1980, Johnny set an endurance record by catching 100 or more games for 13 consecutive seasons. And in 1999, he received baseball's esteemed honor of selection to the All Century Team.

Over the years, Johnny has maintained a sense of balance by using his celebrity status to aid such worthy causes as the Heart Association, the American Cancer Society (as past National Chairman of Athletes Versus Cancer), the Kidney Foundation, Franciscan Sisters of Poor Health System, the American Lung Association and the Catch the Cure program of the Children's Hospital of Cincinnati. He also supports the Cincinnati Symphony and the Museum of Science and Industry. The Johnny Bench Scholarship Fund provides funds for students to attend college in the Cincinnati area.

Johnny's national broadcasting background includes nine years with CBS Radio – broadcasting the National Game of the Week, the All-Star Game, the League Championship Series and the World Series – as well as play-by-play on Reds' television.

Johnny is a symbol of winning through hard work and teamwork as outlined in his keynote presentation featuring "The Vowels of Success," which highlights easy to remember motivational tips.
