This year’s honoree is Mrs. Diana Prince of Prince Charitable Trusts, a family foundation supporting programs in Chicago, Illinois, Washington, DC and Newport, Rhode Island. Her daughter Daisy Prince graciously accepted the tribute on behalf of her mother. “We’re incredibly fortunate stand in for my mother and for my late father, long time supporters of Tudor Place. I feel such a sense of happiness to being able to recognize this jewel in Georgetown which has such a continuity with the past. And how fortunate we are to gather again as a community. It’s fun! The Marquis de Lafayette Marquise didn’t like parties but he’d definitely like this one.”
