Angelina Jolie Honors Mariane Pearl in D.C.

Originally posted 04/08/2008 05:30PM

Angelina Jolie was radiant as she awarded her friend, journalist Mariane Pearl, with the Fern Holland Award Monday night at the Vital Voices Global Leadership Awards gala in Washington, D.C.

Jolie, who played Pearl in the film version of her book A Mighty Heart, spoke of Pearl's special gift as a mother and called her an example of "courage, hope and tolerance," reports the Washington Post.

Pearl, the wife of slain reporter Daniel Pearl, called Jolie "a sister" during her acceptance speech, and the two spent the day together, as their kids – Maddox, Pax and Adam – played.

On Tuesday, Jolie participated in a Council on Foreign Relations event in Washington D.C. The event was to help launch Jolie's new venture, the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict, which will focus on the work of prominent charity organizations as well as tell the stories of the children in need.

Angelina Jolie Takes Her Boys for a Day at the Museum

Brothers Maddox and Pax Jolie-Pitt and their mother, Angelina Jolie, enjoyed some high-flying fun together Monday at Washington, D.C.'s Air and Space Museum – where they proved to be one of the major sights, as far as the camera-toting tourists were concerned, The Washington Post reports.

Accompanied by security guards and sporting a navy blue hoodie, 6-year-old Maddox and 4-year-old Pax, in an olive green jacket, reportedly asked a barrage of questions as they gazed upon Space Hall, Skylab and the WWI and WWII aerial exhibits.

Their mom, however, also had more earth-bound issues on her mind during her visit to the nation's capital, says The Post. Monday night she attended a Vital Voices Global Leadership Awards gala, where she presented Mariane Pearl with an award, and Tuesday she was headed for the Council on Foreign Relations to discuss a new worldwide education initiative.

Despite reports that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt wedded in a New Orleans church Saturday, a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE there was "no wedding."

The family spent a weekend in New Orleans two weeks ago – as Pitt broke ground on his Make It Right project to help rebuild the city's Lower Ninth Ward – but they have recently been in the Austin, Texas, area while Pitt films Tree of Life with Sean Penn.

Jolie, who stars in the action film Wanted, opening in June, is pregnant and due later this year.
