Kennedy Center president Deborah F. Rutter said: 'Since his first exhibitions on Saturday Night Live over three decades back, Bill Murray has enchanted us with remarkable exhibitions from a varied cast of characters that have ended up installed in our social vernacular.
'A grant winning author, performer, and entertainer, his splendid mind, and Infectious soul keep on inspiring our chuckling crosswise over eras both on and off the screen. His exceptional image of amusingness appears to resist time itself—continually staying applicable and relatable to new crowds—much like our honor's namesake.'
Also, Murray reacted: 'I'm respected by this grant and by its planning. I trust Mark Twain has moved over in his grave such a great amount for so long, that this news won't bother his peace.'
Richard Pryor won the primary Mark Twain grant in 1998, and consequent victors have included Carl Reiner, Whoopi Goldberg, Steve Martin, Bill Cosby and Tina Fey. A year ago's recompense went to Eddie Murphy.
