Lista dos recipientes da Medalha Presidencial da Liberdade
Esta é uma lista alfabética parcial dos recipientes da Medalha Presidencial da Liberdade, agrupados pela área em que foram reconhecidos. Quando não estabelecido explicitamente os nomes são listados na ordem em que apareceram no anúncio oficial do prêmio (por exemplo Presidente Jimmy Carter, Dr. Ralph J. Bunche) que pode não seguir o cargo maior ou seu título usual. A Medalha Presidencial da Liberdade é concedida pelo Presidente dos Estados Unidos "por contribuições especialmente meritórias à (1) segurança ou interesse nacional dos Estados Unidos, ou (2) à paz mundial ou (3) a empreendimentos culturais ou outros interesses públicos ou privados"; é concedida a pessoas selecionadas pelo Presidente dos Estados Unidos ou recomendadas a ele pelo Distinguished Civilian Service Awards Board.
A única exceção à regra de que o presidente em exercício escolhe aqueles a serem honorificados foi que os primeiros recipientes foram selecionados pelo Presidente John F. Kennedy antes de seu assassinato e formalmente condecorados por seu sucessor no cargo, Lyndon B. Johnson.[1] O presidente Bill Clinton concedeu 88 medalha enquanto o presidente George W. Bush concedeu 81 medalhas; o presidente Barack Obama concedeu 80 medalhas até 24 de novembro de 2014.[2][3][4]
Três pessoas, Ellsworth Bunker, John Kenneth Galbraith e Colin Powell receberam a medalha duas vezes. Ellsworth Bunker recebeu ambas com distinção.
Esta lista não inclui as pessoas condecoradas com a medalha de designação similar porém distinta Medalha da Liberdade, uma condecoração anterior a 1963.

All of these are famous people, they're well-known throughout the world. But even including Vice Presidents and Presidents, noted singers and dancers and writers and ornithologists, I think the next would be the most famous of us all, including the one who reads this citation. I would like to ask Mrs. John Wayne to come forward. [At this point, the President read the citation, the text of which follows: THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AWARDS THIS PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF FREEDOM TO JOHN WAYNE. John Wayne was both an example and a symbol of true American grit and determination. Through his countless film roles, "The Duke" still leads millions on heroic adventures on behalf of fairness and justice. He embodies the enduring American values of individualism, relentless bravery and perseverance in pursuit of what is right. He was the quintessential patriot, and will especially be remembered whenever our Nation faces a challenge calling for steadfast courage.]
