The Knudsen Award commemorates the legacy of LTG William S. ‘Bill’ Knudsen. Knudsen was an automotive industry executive and Lieutenant General of the United States Army remembered for his foresight and exemplary leadership to safeguard the country against emerging threats by fortifying our defense industrial complex. His reputation and manufacturing expertise as the President of Chevrolet and then General motors led him to be appointed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt during World War II to lead the United States’ materiel production efforts and bolster national defense capabilities. Today the Knudsen Award honors individuals across industry, military and government who embody the same visionary spirit of LGT William S. Knudsen.
