I’m thrilled to announce that, for the fourth year in a row, the Forward’sexcellent journalism has been recognized with the highest number of the American Jewish Press Association’s Simon Rockower Awards — known as the “Jewish Pulitzers.” Our 30 Rockower award wins follow other nods to the Forward’s journalism from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club, New York Press Club, Deadline Club and Religion News Association, among others.
The full list of winning stories features breaking news, in-depth features, investigations, commentary, culture coverage and more. They reflect some of the Forward’s most ambitious and creative reporting during a most challenging time for Jews:
It's never been more important to tell the American Jewish story in all its complexity. The support of our readers and members makes our work possible. Please contribute to our work.
And join me in wishing a mazel tov to our team of journalists for their indefatigable commitment to independent, irreverent, enlightening journalism!
