State and Local Awards

Phoenix New Times
To list all the prizes awarded to Phoenix New Times by the Arizona Press Club over the years would be impractical.  Competing against the state's daily newspapers, New Times has consistently won more writing awards than any of them, sometimes sweeping entire categories.  The paper has garnered more than its share of the Press Club's top honors, too: the Virg Hill Newsperson of the Year Award, the Don Schellie Award for Feature Column Writing and the Don Bolles Award for Investigative Reporting.
