Bruce Springsteen, Gladys Knight, Mindy Kaling and Vera Wang are among a group of creatives, writers, advocates and scholars who were honored at the White House with the 2021 National Humanities Medals and the National Medal of Arts
“We’re a nation, a great nation, in large part because of the power of the arts and humanities. That’s stamped into the DNA of America,” Biden said during the ceremony in the East Room. “Today … continue the legacy of awarding two of our nation’s highest honors to 23 extraordinary Americans.” The National Medal of the Arts is the highest American award given to artists, art patrons and groups that have advanced arts in the United States.
Tuesday’s ceremony was among the backlog of White House events postponed during the Covid-19 pandemic, according to the White House. Biden also awarded the National Humanities Medal to 11 recipients.
