PRESIDENT CLINTON NAMES JANE ALEXANDER TO CHAIR
NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE ARTS
WASHINGTON, D.C. - President Clinton today announced his
nomination of award-winning actress, producer and author
Jane Alexander as Chairwoman of the National Endowment for
the Arts.
"The arts play an essential role in educating and
enriching the lives of all Americans, and the National
Endowment is integral to helping arts thrive throughout the
country. The NEA helps enhance our children's learning,
serves as an economic catalyst for local communities, and
makes the arts a more accessible and vital part of people's
everyday lives," said the President.
"The Endowment's mission of fostering and preserving
our nation's cultural heritage is too important to remain
mired in the problems of the past. It is time to move
forward and Jane Alexander is superbly qualified to lead the
Endowment into a new era of excellence. Just as she has
brought the power of performance to regional theaters
throughout the country, she will be a tireless and
articulate spokesperson for the value of bringing art into
the lives of all Americans.
"More than 30 years ago, President John F. Kennedy
said, 'I see little of more importance to the future of our
country and our civilization than full recognition of the
place of the artist.' With those words as her challenge, I
am confident Jane Alexander will work tirelessly and
courageously to make the arts a full and productive partner
in our nation's future," the President said.
Ms. Alexander currently stars in the hit Broadway play,
Wendy Wasserstein's The Sisters Rosensweig. In addition to
her Tony Award for The Great White Hope and Emmy Award for
Playing for Time, Ms. Alexander has received five Tony Award
nominations, four Academy Award nominations, and five Emmy
Award nominations. She has produced several films, narrated
numerous documentaries, short stories, and books, and is the
co-author of a translation of Henrik Ibsen's The Master
Builder.
Ms. Alexander is a forceful leader and able manager who
has served as an effective advocate for a number of
worthwhile causes, including the National Stroke
Association, Women's Action for New Directions and the
Wildlife Conservation Society. In recognition of her
leadership, she received the Living Legacy Award: Jehan
Sadat Peace award in 1988.
The NEA, created in 1965, is an independent federal
agency whose mission is to foster and sustain the
excellence, diversity and vitality of culture in the United
States while broadening the availability of arts for all
Americans.
