Two writers for the Forward have been named finalists for the 2017 Deadline Club Awards.
Simi Horwitz is a finalist in the category of Reporting by a Newspaper with Circulation Under 100,000 for her three-part series on Hasidic women. The first item of that series focused on the women helming Orthodox newspapers, the next on Orthodox cinema’s woman-led revolution, and the last on the increasing prominence of Orthodox woman singers.
Allan M. Jalon is a finalist in the category of Arts Reporting for his article “Paul Newman’s Lost Masterpiece — And How We Rediscovered It.”
The Deadline Club is the New York City Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists. Their annual awards honor print, broadcast, and digital journalism created in New York City. Winners of this year’s awards will be announced at a dinner on May 22.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.
Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and the protests on college campuses.
