The Knight Foundation and University of Michigan support The Livingston Awards

The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation and the University of Michigan have guaranteed a total of $500,000 to fund the Livingston Awards for Young Journalists for two years while a permanent endowment is sought.

The funds will support the three $10,000 prizes awarded to outstanding work in journalists under 35 and the $5,000 Richard M. Clurman prize honoring superb on-the-job mentors.

This year’s prizes will be presented in person by the judging panel on June 6, 2013 at a New York luncheon. Leading media figures and the winners’ families and colleagues will be in attendance to honor the winners. By recognizing the best young talent early in their careers, the Livingston Awards seeks to support the work of young journalists, create modern role models for the next generation of news consumers and advance excellence in journalism.
