 And the award goes to ... who?: The National Foundation for Jewish Culture, an advocate for Jewish cultural creativity and preservation in America, presented the 14th annual Jewish Cultural Achievement Awards in five categories -- Patron of the Arts, Media Arts, Performing Arts, Literary Arts and Visual Arts -- during a gala ceremony last week at the Plaza Hotel in New York hosted by Tony Award-winning actor Ron Leibman. The event raised more than $500,000 for the Fund For Jewish Documentary Filmmaking. The 2003 recipients were Leonard Nimoy, actor, author and photographer (Performing Arts); Lynn Korda Kroll, philanthropist and chairman of the board of the NFJC (Patron of the Arts); Adrienne Rich, author, poet and educator (Literary Arts); Mierle Laderman Ukeles, conceptual and installation artist (Visual Arts); David Isay, radio producer (Media Arts).
Besides Nimoy, has anyone ever heard of these people?
