National Headliner Award
Saturday, April 2, 2011 at 10:52PM
I'm deeply gratified to have been informed that I just won my second National Headliner Award.
The first one was a couple of years ago for the online version of the Cleveland Plain Dealer's "Johanna: Facing Forward" series. We broke some ground on that presentation, I'm proud of it, anyone who views it will see my work all over it and a win's a win. Still, this was in a strange, fringe category — Best Online Slide Show — and I was one member of a rather large team.
This first-place award was in my category — Information Graphics — and for a portfolio of my work. Not an ensemble and not some fluky single piece. For someone who has respected and coveted the Headliner as I have, it really doesn't get much better than this.
