Speaker: Mr. Michael Novak
Michael
Novak has been a leader in the effort to shape culture, government,
and public policy in both this country and the rest of the
world, in a manner that is in accordance with right reason
and the dignity of man. Currently a senior scholar at the
American Enterprise Institute and a member of the Board of
the National Endowment for Democracy, Mr. Novak has twice
served as the U.S. ambassador to the UN Human Rights Commission,
and once to the Conference on Security and Cooperation in
Europe. His writings on religion, philosophy, and public policy
have been translated into every major language. We thank him
for his work and join him in honoring Prof. Ralph McInerny’s
efforts to preserve and promote the universal truth and our
Western tradition.
