THE MICHIGAN JOURNALISM HALL OF FAME

The Michigan Journalism Hall of Fame recognizes reporters, editors, publishers, owners, photographers, broadcasters, educators, and others who have made outstanding contributions to the profession. The Michigan Journalism Hall of Fame was established to recognize those who have advanced the legacy of a free and responsible press and who have inspired others to improve the quality of the profession.

It acknowledges the service and dedication of individuals whose distinguished contributions to the profession in their communities, regions or the state have earned them a place in the Michigan Journalism Hall of Fame. Induction memorializes extraordinary and clearly outstanding careers. From its beginnings in 1952 by the Newspaper Hall of Fame, the Journalism Hall of Fame has continued the tradition of honoring journalists since 1985.

The new inductees will be honored at the Hall of Fame banquet on April 9, 2017.

Congratulations to the 2017 Inductees:

• Patricia Anstett
• Stephen Cain
• John Gallagher
• David Gilkey
• Mary Kramer
