National Magazine Awards
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Magazine Awards are a prestigious series of American awards that honor excellence in the magazine industry. They are administered by the American Society of Magazine Editors and the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in New York City. The awards have been presented annually since 1966.[1]
They are generally considered the highest award in the magazine industry; in the magazine world, they are roughly equivalent to the Pulitzer Prizes (which are far more widely known in the popular culture, but do not include a magazine category).[2][3]
Recipients of awards are selected in a two-step procedure: First, entries are reviewed by a judging panel, which recommends a group of finalists; then, a second panel of judges chooses one winner in each category.
Winners in each of the categories are awarded an "Ellie." It is a copper-colored stabile by Alexander Calder, resembling an elephant. The National Magazine Awards web site has a searchable database of all the winners and Top Five finalists.
