NABJ Hall of Fame

NABJ Hall of Fame

The NABJ Hall of Fame is a hall of fame project of the National Association of Black Journalists honoring African-American and other journalists. The original Hall of Fame list was established on April 5, 1990, with the indictution of seven individuals. No further individuals were inducted until the Hall of Fame was revived by the NABJ in 2004. Since 2004, several individuals have been inducted to the Hall of Fame each year. Nominations are approved by the NABJ Board of Directors, and new inductees are installed annually at the NABJ Hall of Fame Banquet and Inductions. Thirty-nine individuals are currently inductees in the Hall of Fame.[1]
