The Alliance for Women in Media Foundation (AWMF) reveals the winners of the 46th Annual Gracie Awards.
This year’s Radio National Honorees include Danielle Monaro from the Premiere Networks-syndicated “Elvis Duran in the Morning,” based at iHeartMedia CHR “Z100” WHTZ New York; DeDe McGuire, host of the Compass Media Networks-syndicated “DeDe in the Morning,” based at Service Broadcasting “K104” KKDA Dallas; and Roula Christie host of Westwood One’s “Weekends with Roula.”
Award winners in the Radio Local Honorees include Kelly Ford, morning host at Audacy country WNSH New York (94.7); Marci Wiser, midday host at Meruelo Media classic rock KLOS Los Angeles (95.5); and Maggie Gray, co-host of “The Moose and Maggie Show” on Audacy sports WFAN-AM/FM New York (660/101.9).
The Gracies recognize exemplary programming created by, for and about women in radio, television, cable and interactive media. Honorees are selected in national, local and student markets, including both commercial and non-commercial outlets.
“Throughout this important year, we have enjoyed some of the most compelling content in our history,” Heather Cohen, Chair, Alliance for Women in Media Foundation, said in a release. “We were informed, enlightened and entertained by women in media across all platforms.”
The Gracie Awards Gala will take place Sept. 27 at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles. In lieu of the Gracie Awards Luncheon, which will no longer take place in person on June 26 in New York City, local and student award winners will be recognized virtually. An alternate in-person celebration is currently being evaluated.
“As we celebrate AWM’s 70th anniversary, we are thrilled to honor this incredible group of women who have demonstrated their commitment to sharing emotionally-charged, timely and compelling content,” Becky Brooks, President, Alliance for Women in Media Foundation remarked. “We look forward to reconvening in person to recognize these incredible achievements and brave story-telling,”
