CHARLES S. BOREN:
Thank you. I am profoundly grateful to the Board of Governors of the Academy. This cherished award is a distinction which will forever remain indelibly in my memory. I accept it with a deep humility. To have worked for and with the people of our industry has been a rare privilege. It has been an enjoyable and rewarding experience. To all my colleagues – many, many colleagues – who have made this possible, my eternal thanks.
