Country music icon, Johnny Cash, was honored with a statue inside the United States Capitol. The statue is one of two new monuments added to the National Statuary Hall Collection to represent the state of Arkansas in the Capitol.

Among the white marble statesmen and bronze war heroes who stand silent sentinel through the halls of the Capitol, a musician arrived Tuesday. It was Johnny Cash, the “Man in Black” who built his fame singing about, and for, outlaws and the things love and cocaine will do to a man.
