About NAM's First National Ethic Media Awards
Washington, D.C., 2006
Hillary Rodham Clinton
I want to congratulate the honorees who are receiving the equivalent of the “Pulitzer Prize.” Every generation brings so many voices to the debate. Ethnic media represent the way the new Washington needs to connect to the new America.
Len Downie, Executive Editor, Washington Post
I was very pleased that I could be at the awards ceremony. New America Media is a very significant journalistic organization and you are doing important work.
Michael Jack, VP of Diversity, NBC Network
Congratulations for pulling off such a successful event. It is not easy to do anything for the first time, but you managed to do just that. The well deserving recipients truly appreciated the acknowledgement.
Brant Houston, Executive Director, Investigative Reporters and Editors, Inc.
Thanks for including us in this great project.
Lorena Hernandez, Bay Area Director of Communications, Comcast
Congratulations on the successful National Ethnic Media Events in DC!
Juliet K. Choi, National Partnership Development Senior Associate, American Red Cross
Congratulations on a beautiful inaugural Ethnic Media Awards – and kudos for getting Senator Clinton to show!

We were very happy to be engaged.
Pat Lawson Muse, Anchor, NBC4
Congratulations for pulling off such a successful event. Many of the stories that generated awards were so moving. The well de- serving recipients truly appreciated the acknowledgement.
Anna Lefer, U.S. Programs Program Officer, Open Society Institute
Congratulations on a hugely successful awards ceremony. After scanning the crowd of journalists and executives from ethnic and mainstream media, elected officials, international dignitaries and diplomats, and DC insiders, it is quite clear that NAM is a part of the political fabric down in DC.
Pam Larson, Executive Vice President, National Academy of Social Insurance
Being part of NAM’s gathering and associated events was a true honor and thrill for us! . . . You’ve got a real eye for the future -- and for making a better “present” for many people, too!
Ellen Hume, Senior Research Fellow, UMASS Boston
Congratulations to everyone. Our delegation just met here at UMASS Boston to recount how inspiring the NAM awards and work- shops were. Everyone is glowing.
Jon Funabiki, former deputy director of the Media, Arts and Culture with Ford Foundation
New America Media truly has changed the nation by bringing the power of ethnic news media into focus and making people take notice. NAM has changed the course of history.
