Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is set to present an award at the Smithsonian's"Portrait of a Nation" gala.
Clinton, who recently announced a new series on Apple TV, has been friends with Edelman for over 50 years, dating back to the time she served on the board of the Children's Defense Fund in the 1970s. Edelman once said that although the duo were friends, they were"not friends in politics" after Hillary's husband former President Bill Clinton signed a welfare reform bill that Edelman claimed hurt millions of U.S. children.
White House chief medical adviser Anthony Fauci, tennis star sisters Venus and Serena Williams, director Ava DuVernay, World Central Kitchen founder Jose Andres and record executive Clive Davis, whose award will be presented by singer Alicia Keys, will be honored at the event. The portrait of each honoree will be hung in a special exhibition from Nov. 10 to Oct. 22, 2023.
"While I am moving on from my current positions, I am not retiring," Fauci said."After more than 50 years of government service, I plan to pursue the next phase of my career while I still have so much energy and passion for my field. I want to use what I have learned as NIAID director to continue to advance science and public health and to inspire and mentor the next generation of scientific leaders as they help prepare the world to face future infectious disease threats.
