Michael Bloomberg (MBA 1966) was one of 19 people awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom at the White House on May 2.
“From finance to media to philanthropy, Michael Bloomberg has revolutionized our economy,” President Biden said as he conferred the Nation’s highest civilian honor. “He’s transformed how we consume information. He’s changed us. He’s challenged us, as well, to solve the toughest challenges from gun violence to climate change. And as mayor, he rebuilt the city of New York after 9/11, channeling our spirit of resilience as a nation and a beacon to the world.”
On social media, Bloomberg said the honor didn’t belong to him alone. “I hope everyone who has worked at [Bloomberg] and [Bloomberg Philanthropies] over the years, or served New York City during our administration, takes pride in what we have been able to achieve together,” he wrote.
