Lifetime Achievement Award to be Presented to 60 Minutes Creator and Executive Producer Don Hewitt and Past and Present Correspondents and Producers

New York, July 14, 2003 -- The 24th Annual News and Documentary Emmy Award nominees were announced today by Peter O. Price, President of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. The awards recognize outstanding achievement by individuals and programs broadcast during the 2002 calendar year. The News and Documentary Emmy Awards will be presented at a black-tie dinner and ceremony on Wednesday evening, September 3, 2003 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City.

“This year’s nominations illustrate the excellent work currently being done in the field of news & documentary,” said Price. “The hard news nominees showcase remarkable reporting on such diverse topics as international terrorism, airport security, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the arrest of the D.C. snipers, the brutal conflict in the Congo, and the rescue of the Pennsylvania miners. The breadth of coverage in the documentary area is equally impressive, ranging from a five-part series on the human brain to a portrait of the celebrated American landscape photographer Ansel Adams.”

The 24th Annual News and Documentary Emmy Awards is presented by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, a non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of television.

“We received nearly 1,500 entries, one of the largest numbers ever,” said Bill Small, Vice Chairman for News and Documentaries. “The number and range of entries demonstrate that quality journalism is alive and well on U.S. television.”
