Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
The Forward is proud to honor several accomplished journalists in its “#FearlessWomen in Journalism Gala,” including its very own editor-in-chief Jane Eisner.
Jane is celebrating 10 years in her post, as first woman to lead the Forward. Her fellow honorees include Jill Abramson, the first woman to serve as executive editor of The New York Times; Dana Bash, an award-winning journalist and chief political correspondent at CNN; Marge Magner, former chair of Gannett and TEGNA; and Lynn Povich, the first woman senior editor at Newsweek and author of “The Good Girls Revolt.”
The gala will be 6:30 p.m. December 5 at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in downtown Manhattan. In addition to the awards, there will be a dinner reception and music.

We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news.
This week we celebrate 129 years of the Forward. We’re proud of our origins as a Yiddish print publication serving Jewish immigrants. And we’re just as proud of what we’ve become today: A trusted source of Jewish news and opinion, available digitally to anyone in the world without paywalls or subscriptions.
We’ve helped five generations of American Jews make sense of the news and the world around them — and we aren’t slowing down any time soon.
As a nonprofit newsroom, reader donations make it possible for us to do this work. Support independent, agenda-free Jewish journalism and our board will match your gift in honor of our birthday!
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
