New York Parenting was the recipient of 6 Awards of Excellence at Parenting Media Association’s Annual Editorial & Design Awards. I once again attended the conference and Award Dinner and happily accepted the Awards on behalf of our team.
We picked up a Silver Award for our June 2016 Front Cover Stock Photo design, featuring a tender portrait of a new Dad lovingly holding his infant. I love that cover! Congratulations to our Art Director, Leah Mitch.
Additionally, this year we again picked up Awards for Editorial pieces from two of our resident writers. Allison Plitt won a Silver Award for her excellent Book Reviews, and Tammy Scileppi was the recipient of two Awards, a Bronze for her News Feature on the tenacious women who battled the NYS Tampon Tax, and another Silver Award for her fine Q & A Interview with a local transgender family. They are fantastic writers who always provide great work.
Our sister publication Westchester Family also won two Awards of Excellence. Congratulations to Jean Sheff, Editor, and her writers.
I am so proud of the marvelous team of talented professionals who share with us their columns and articles. We are grateful for their expertise and for their informative contributions to our editorial content. We strongly believe that quality content is essential and that our readers are actually still interested in reading.
It’s a great pleasure to continue this work for that I began 17 years ago when we first launched Brooklyn Family. It certainly has grown. Most recently we have been thrilled to see the expansion, relevance and popularity of our fine website, NYPar
Who knows what’s coming next … Thanks for reading.
