In his presentation of the Lifetime Achievement Award to the couple, NEHGS President and
CEO Simons recalled the tradition of NEHGS to pay public tribute to important figures
who represent some of the best contributions to our understanding of family in the
nation’s past, present, and future.

“One hundred and seventy years after our founding, NEHGS continues its commitment to document a significant part of our nation’s history through the celebration of remarkable individuals who have made an indelible contribution to our understanding of family in America,” commented Simons. “Mary Matalin and James Carville embody that example. Through the often entertaining dynamic that their very public relationship has brought to the nation’s eye in the
White House, as well as in their own hometown they have won the hearts of people
everywhere who love to be reminded that family unity is possible among even the most
unlikely personalities.”
