Anne Morgan Award of Excellence at The Pierre

On October 20, 2011 at the Pierre Hotel, the American Friends of Blérancourt honored Baroness Philippine de Rothschild as the first recipient of the Anne Morgan Award of Excellence. Anne Morgan, daughter of JP Morgan along with 350 women volunteers rebuilt war-torn Picardy following WWI. The Château de Blérancourt, her former home, now houses the Franco-American museum she founded. The Anne Morgan award was created to recognize a woman who has similarly responded to a challenge in society, the arts and in business.
