The Cosmos Club is proud to present the fifty-first Cosmos Club Award to economist Alice Rivlin in recognition of her remarkable achievements in economics and public service. Her distinguished career has been marked by integrity and intelligence both in government and the private sector, where she has repeatedly sought to translate economic theory into creative and effective fiscal and monetary policy. For these accomplishments and for her continuing work in fiscal and health-care reform, she has earned the thanks and praise of presidents, her fellow scholars, and the nation.
