Deborah Rutter believes living an "artful life" is essential to well-being. The former president of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts said that means recognizing that everything that makes daily life beautiful - from the music playing in the grocery store to the architecture of the buildings along your commute - exists because of artists. "I have a personal belief that artists hold up a mirror to who we are as human beings and who our society is," Rutter said. "Our artists are telling the story of what's happening today. They are the truth-tellers."
