Last week, I went to the National Portrait Gallery to see its newest exhibit, "American Cool". It featured individuals in American culture since the 1940s that have helped define "cool" in our country. Most featured were familiar to me, a few not, but I definitely all had that quintessential cool factor that we all seem to admire. A few of my favorites: Jimi Hendrix, Bill Murray, Chrissie Hynde, Frank Sinatra--we just a few of artists, athletes, actors, authors, musicians and social activists that made there mark in shaping our culture.
I really enjoyed this exhibit, and encourage you all to take it in. It is at the Portrait Gallery until September 7th, so plenty of time to see it!
