U.S. President Joe Biden awarded Bruce Springsteen with the National Medal of Arts, the highest honor a U.S. artist can receive.
The reason Springsteen received the medal was stated in the following words, "The artist celebrates our triumphs, heals our wounds and gives us hope, capturing the true spirit of what it means to be an American."
In addition to Bruce Springsteen, eleven other artists were awarded, including fashion designer Vera Wang, the actress of the TV series The Office Mindy Kaling and also Elton John, who, however, received the medal last September, during the concert she had given at the White House.
