I’m so honored by this recognition. I’m also looking for work! The Washington Post laid me off earlier this year. Deep thanks to the SFJ for elevating arts criticism in this tumultuous moment. Deep thanks to everyone for reading my stuff and spreading the word.

Congrats to our own @bennetgoldstein.bsky.social on this well-deserved recognition. We're driven by a desire to serve the public and make an impact, not to win awards — but it's always gratifying when our peers recognize the power of our work.
