While covering the Roosevelt Island Tramway breakdown that left passengers trapped in the air for 12 hours, New York Daily News interviewed several rescuees, including "Alex Gamburg, 74, an illustrator for New York Press." AAN News called the Press and was able to confirm Gamburg's connection. No other details about his ordeal were available, but he told the Daily News, "I was extremely impressed with how the police were extremely careful with all of us."
AAN members in the Southeast took home 16 of the 26 awards presented in the print (weekly/monthly) category of this year's Green Eyeshade awards. New Times Broward-Palm Beach was the biggest winner, with six awards, including two for Wyatt Olsen's story "The Bad-Hands People."

The Green Eyeshade Awards honor the best in professional journalism in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia.
