CBS
Produced with George Stevens Jr., Don has either co-produced or directed the Kennedy Center Honors 22 times since they first aired in 1978. This prestigious annual event in Washington has redefined America's perception of its artistic legacy and reinvented the way this nation rewards its artists. Broadcast on CBS, the Honors have received seven Emmy Awards and have been attended by every President since its creation. Honorees have included Jack Nicholson, Sir Elton John, Barbra Streisand, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Paul Simon and Bob Dylan.
"This annual celebration from our nation's capital looks bigger and better every year"
- The Hollywood Reporter
"Other countries honor their artists with a medal and maybe a nice cup of tea. But the Honors are such a wild concoction of events that it's a wonder there isn't a large explosion emanating from the marble edifice on the Potomac every year"
- The Washington Post
"The Kennedy Center Honors is television's gift for viewers who didn't find enough treasure under the Christmas tree"
- The Philadelphia Inquirer
