On Friday, October 12, 2018, leading conservationists and philanthropists from around the world gathered for Oceana’s annual New York Gala. Hosted by Board member Susan Rockefeller, the event took place at the iconic Rainbow Room and honored actors Sam Waterston and Morgan Freeman for their longstanding commitments to Ocean Conservation. President Bill Clinton gave remarks and provided Sam Waterston with his award while Oceana’s CEO, Andrew Sharpless, provided Morgan Freeman with the same honor. Actor Ted Danson served as the evening’s Master of Ceremonies, while music legends Nile Rogers and CHIC closed the event with a performance of their greatest hits and songs from their newly released album, It’s About Time.
