AOC, Zegna to Honor Clinton Water Protection Efforts

In partnership with Italian designer Ermenegildo Zegna, the American Oceans Campaign (AOC) has selected former President Bill Clinton as this year’s recipient of the AOC Partners Award. Zegna will host the awards dinner in Los Angeles on Oct. 2 at the Century Plaza Hotel. The AOC, a nonprofit organization involved in the protection of the nation’s coastal waters, will recognize Clinton’s efforts to protect the oceans during his presidency. AOC founding president and actor Ted Danson, along with his wife, actress-activist Mary Steenburgen, will present the award. —Nola Sarkisian-Miller
