NEH Choice Announced

Former Rep. Jim Leach (R-Iowa) was selected last week as the nominee for the National Endowment for the Humanities.

In a statement, President Barack Obama said this:

“I am confident that with Jim as its head, the National Endowment for the Humanities will continue on its vital mission of supporting the humanities and giving the American public access to the rich resources of our culture.  Jim is a valued and dedicated public servant and I look forward to working with him in the months and years ahead.”
