The
Cincinnati Professional Chapter created a
Cincinnati Journalism Hall of Fame in 1990 to recognize the achievements of past
and present journalists. To be considered, the journalist must have
made significant contributions to the quality of journalism in
Cincinnati. Nominations are accepted from any source. Nominees are
selected by the current board and recognized at the annual Awards of
Excellence banquet as well as on a commemorative plaque.
