Rich won the 1974 National Book Award for Diving Into the Wreck. Rich refused the National Medal for the Arts in 1997 saying, "I could not accept such an award from President Clinton or this White House because the very meaning of art, as I understand it, is incompatible with the cynical politics of this administration."
