Ceremony for Kevin Sawyer, Winner of 2016 Aronson Award for Community Journalism, Held in San Quentin Prison

On September 29, 2016, the San Quentin News held its first recognition ceremony in honor of Kevin Sawyer, winner of the 2016 Aronson Award for Community Journalism, and the other San Quentin News reporters. The ceremony was held inside San Quentin Prison.  It was their first opportunity to acknowledge those who work directly with the newspaper inside and outside of the prison, and the unsung individuals that have helped them reach the point they are at today.  The Hunter College Department of Film and Media Studies and the Aronson Awards are thrilled to have contributed to this celebration.


The Award is administered by the Hunter College Department of Film & Media Studies and an Awards Committee of journalists and media critics. The Award is presented each spring at Hunter College of the City University of New York.
