She received the Presidential Medal of Freedom on October 17 1988. In 1941 during World War II Bailey toured the country with the USO performing for American troops. After the tour she settled in New York. Her solo successes as a nightclub performer were followed by acts with entertainers such as Cab Calloway and Duke Ellington. In 1969 Bailey was recognized as USO's woman of the year. In 1975 she was appointed special ambassador to the United Nations by President Gerald Ford a position she held under three presidents. This was a Coretta Scott King Award Winning Book in 1976. Derived from a Kirkus review: . Duey is a baby seed stirring with the others in his mother's leafy skirt until the wind blows him away -- and down the river with a log named Gabby and Slicker a motherly bottle. They are parted but Duey later runs across Gabby now an elegantly carved walking stick "Man oh man oh man let me tell you about my operation" and Slicker displayed in a sailmaker's shop window and eventually settles down himself as a fine young tree happy to be noticed by a young couple who sit at his feet. An uplifting feel good story that the entire family can enjoy. Additionally it is likely very healthy reading since the seedling is high in fiber. Harcourt Brace Jovanovich hardcover
