Academy Elects 225th Class of Fellows and
Foreign Honorary Members
2005 Class Includes Scholars, Scientists,
Artists, Civic, Corporate and Philanthropic Leaders
Cambridge, MA, April 26, 2005 – The American
Academy of Arts and Sciences today announced the election of 196 new Fellows
and 17 new Foreign Honorary Members. The 213 men and women are leaders in
scholarship, business, the arts, and public affairs.
This year’s new Fellows include Nobel Prize-winning
physicist Eric Cornell of the University of Colorado; Supreme Court
Chief Justice William Rehnquist; Steven Squyres, leader of NASA’s
Rover program for the exploration of Mars; Dante scholar and chairman emeritus
of the National Humanities Center, Robert Hollander; sculptor and
painter Jeff Koons; Academy Award-winning actor and director Sidney
Poitier; choreographers Mark Morris and Judith Jamison;
journalist Tom Brokaw; Washington Post Company CEO Donald Graham;
Google co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page; Time, Inc., CEO Ann
Moore; architect, sculptor, and designer of the Vietnam Veterans’
Memorial in Washington, Maya Lin; as well as four Pulitzer Prize winners
– dramatist Horton Foote; playwright Tony Kushner; novelist Alison
Lurie, and cartoonist Art Spiegelman.
The selection of Foreign Honorary Members honors
distinguished experts and intellectuals from outside the United States. Past
elected Foreign Honorary Members include Neils Bohr, Alfred Lord Tennyson,
Jawaharlal Nehru, and Albert Camus. This year’s class includes individuals from
nine countries, including Nobel Prize-winning Polish poet, Wislawa Szymborska;
Brenda Milner of the Montreal Neurological Institute at McGill
University, one of the founders of cognitive neuroscience; and Jerusalem-based
pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim, who has used his music to build
bridges between Israeli and Palestinian society.
"It gives me great pleasure to welcome these
outstanding leaders in their fields in this, the Academy’s 225th year," said
Academy President Patricia Meyer Spacks. "Fellows are selected through a highly
competitive process that recognizes individuals who have made preeminent
contributions to their disciplines and to society at large."
"Throughout its history, the Academy has convened the
leading thinkers of the day, from diverse perspectives, to participate in
projects and studies that advance the public good," added Chief Executive Officer
Leslie Berlowitz. "I am confident that this distinguished class of new Fellows
will continue that tradition of cherishing knowledge and shaping the future."
Fellows and Foreign Honorary Members are nominated and
elected to the Academy by current members. A broad-based membership, comprised
of scholars and practitioners from mathematics, physics, biological sciences,
social sciences, humanities and the arts, public affairs and business, gives
the Academy a unique capacity to conduct a wide range of interdisciplinary
studies and public policy research.
The Academy will welcome this year’s new Fellows and
Foreign Honorary Members at its annual induction ceremony on October 8, at the
Academy’s headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The 2005 class of new Academy members continues a
tradition of honoring intellectual achievement, leadership and creativity in
all fields. Also among the newly elected members are E. J. Dionne, Jr.,
political columnist and senior fellow at the Brookings Institution; Earl Powell
III, director of the National Gallery of Art; Nancy Sabin Wexler
of Columbia University, a leader in epidemiological research whose work
advanced sound public policies in the area of genetic research; lawyer and
civic leader Frederick A. O. Schwarz; urban planner, author and longtime
champion of New York’s Central Park, Elizabeth Rogers; Glenn Lowry,
director of the Museum of Modern Art; Janice Stein of the University of
