  1. The Washington Post _ The Great Society: 50 Years

    When Johnson birthed the NEA and the NEH, the budgets were tiny. {The NEH began life in 1966 with an appropriation of $5.9 million, and the NEA $2.9 million.} Under Richard Nixon, both budgets increased exponentially, and two of the NEA's strongest leaders were Republican appointees: Nancy Hanks, who served under Nixon and Gerald Ford, and Gioia, who served under George W. Bush.
