Re: [seedsavers] Kent Whealy



 I think it is important to understand that Kent Whealy is an exceptional human being. He was awarded the MacArthur Fellowship. As a supportive wife and interested party in SSE, Diane is certainly a person of note herself, but she would most likely still be growing her grandfathers tomatoes in her home garden if not for the vision and determination of her ex-husband.


MacArthur Fellows Program

The MacArthur Fellows Program awards unrestricted fellowships to talented individuals who have shown extraordinary originality and dedication in their creative pursuits and a marked capacity for self-

direction. There are three criteria for selection of Fellows: exceptional creativity, promise for important future advances based on a track record of significant accomplishment, and potential for the fellowship to facilitate subsequent creative work. The MacArthur Fellows Program is intended to encourage people of outstanding talent to pursue their own creative, intellectual, and professional inclinations.
