Shonda Rhimes has stepped down as treasurer of the Kennedy Center just as Donald Trumpnamed himself the chair of its board.
The Golden Globe-winning show creator and writer behind some of the biggest television hits of the last decade, including Bridgerton, Inventing Anna and Grey’s Anatomy, posted a headline with the news of her departure to Instagram on Wednesday.
She only provided a John F. Kennedy quote as an explanation: “If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.”
