President's Committee on the Arts & Humanities

Well he still may not have an Arts "Czar"--and probably won't until certain media outlets concede the Czars and the Bolsheviks were actually not the same--but Obama has apparently launched a Committee on the Arts and Humanities, with Broadway producer Margot Lion as co-chair.

Is Obama the best thing that's happened to the Broadway producers since "Premium Seats" or what!

The First Lady will remain the more visible the "Honorary Chair."

The Committee itself is nothing new; it's been around since 1982 under Republican and Democrats alike. The question is: what will Obama do with it?
