Frank Gehry
Yale School of Architecture
New Haven, Connecticut
Nominated By: Malissa Shriver
Frank Gehry taught me how to understand the meaning of artistic creation, how it impacts our world, and the importance of arts education. He taught me how to trust myself, how to be brave, and how artists lead through risk taking and using emotion as one’s guide. He taught students that their signatures were keys to the kingdom of their creativity, to their unique talents. He was my hero.
