The Madeline Dane Ross Award 1988

The foreign correspondent in any medium showing a concern for the human condition

AWARD YEAR: 1988

AWARD NAME: The Madeline Dane Ross Award 1988

RECIPIENTS: Harry Benson, Civia Tamarkin

AFFILIATION: People magazine

HONORED WORK: “Celia Goldie: Dealing with the Aged”

The suspense, the buildup and the climax presented in the photos and the text are perfectly executed experiences. The feelings and expressions of the elderly mother and her son are as graphically written and have an impact as good as, if not better than, a television documentary would have.
