Jewish
News
wins 12 SPJ
awards
T
he Detroit Jewish News won
12 awards for excellence in
journalism from the Society of
Professional Journalists Detroit chap-
ter. The awards honor the best work
in print, radio, television and digital
journalism in southeastern Michigan
each year.
“We appreciate the well-de-
served recognition for our writers
and designers and, by extension,
the entire Jewish News staff,”
said JN Publisher Arthur Horwitz.
“
At a time when our entire industry
is under economic duress, we remain
committed to providing our com-
munity of readers and advertisers
with trusted, compelling and unique
content. This year’
s winners continue
to build on the JN’
s long-standing
legacy of editorial excellence.”
Contributing writer Shari Cohen
earned two awards — one in the local
reporting category and one in the
explanatory story category.
Corrie Colf, staff writer, won an
award for sports reporting.
Contributing writer Esther Ingber
won a general reporting award.
Elizabeth Katz, also a contributing
writer, earned an award for health
reporting.
Designer Michelle Sheridan won
three awards for feature page design
and one for cover design.
Finally, three JN columnists
were recognized for general col-
umn writing: Alan Muskovitz,
Suzanne Chessler and Ben Falik.
Andrew Lapin, who became the
editor of the JN in January, empha-
sized how proud he was of the JN’
s
staff.
“Inheriting a talented group like
this makes my tenure as the new
editor that much better,” he said. “I
also want to thank SPJ Detroit for
recognizing the JN’
s great work over
the past year and for doing so even
despite the challenges of this pan-
demic.”
