Lifetime Achievement Awards
Since its inception in 1978, the City and Regional Magazine Association has recognized leading members of the industry by giving them the Lifetime Achievement Award. This honor is given occasionally -- not annually. The recipient is chosen from nominations by members. The honor recognizes individuals who have made a significant contribution to the magazine publishing industry. The recipient of the RR Donnelley Lifetime Achievement Award is announced and honored at the Awards Ceremony at the climax of the Annual CRMA Conference.
