George C.Marshall by National Portrait Gallery

George C. Marshall served as chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff during World War II and as secretary of state during the rebuilding of Europe. A master of mobilization and organization, he did as much as any national leader in achieving Allied victory in the war; afterward, as architect of the Marshall Plan, he won the Nobel Peace Prize for that highly effective effort on behalf of Western European economic recovery. Winston Churchill called him "the noblest Roman of them all." This collection of Marshall portraiture and memorabilia commemorates and humanizes the man, and accompanies an exhibit on Marshall that opens at the National Gallery in November 1997.
