Tony and Emmy winner Chenoweth was celebrated for her philanthropic contributions to the music community.

Also honored were Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) for their roles in achieving bipartisan support of the Music Modernization Act, further advancing music creators' rights.
