On April 4th, 2011, ASCAP Foundation President Paul Williams hosted an educational presentation and concert at the Library of Congress featuring three-time Grammy-winning children's and folk music performer Tom Chapin. Librarian of Congress Dr. James Billington welcomed youngsters and Rep. Howard Coble (R-NC) delivered remarks linking music and education. The event was attended by local schoolchildren and the families of members of Congress, and began with a discussion between Williams (who wrote the lyric score of The Muppet Movie) and Chapin about creating children's music, the life of a songwriter and Chapin's distinguished career. Following the discussion, Chapin and his trio performed a selection of his original songs beloved by children and families.
