Too Long; Didn't Read
The MacArthur Fellows Program is a prize awarded annually to 20 – 30 citizens or residents of the United States, from any field based on talent, dedication and potential. The winners’ occupations are remarkably diverse: spider silk biologists, farmers, atmospheric chemists, painters, sculptors, tropical foresters, rare book preservationists, computer scientists, doctors, historians, etc. The award is seen as a future investment to let the fellowship recipients to their own devices and work on projects they wouldn’t have the resources, time, or money to do.
