Three people with deep connections to the Washington, DC, region will be honored by the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery. Dr. Anthony Fauci, José Andrés, and Marian Wright Edelman  are among the 2022 recipients of the Portrait of a Nation Award, which “recognizes extraordinary individuals who have made transformative contributions to the United States and its people across numerous fields of endeavor, ranging from the arts and sciences to sports and humanitarianism.”
