The purpose of the Academy is “to cultivate every art and science which may tend to advance the interest, honor, dignity, and happiness of a free, independent, and virtuous people.” Dave joins a most distinguished group that includes Aaron Copland, Benjamin Franklin, Martin Luther King, Jr., Mary Leaky, Georgia O’Keeffe, Jonas Salk, and a constellation of other luminaries that have had lasting impact in the arts and sciences.This is marvelous news for Yale, for G&G, and of course for Dave.
