Emily Barr

GRAHAM MEDIA GROUP Pres./CEO EMILY L. BARR will receive the 2018 GOLDEN MIKE AWARD from The BROADCASTERS FOUNDATION OF AMERICA on MONDAY, MARCH 5th, 2018, at the PLAZA HOTEL in NEW YORK CITY. The annual black-tie gala is a major fundraiser for the BROADCASTERS FOUNDATION, the only charity devoted exclusively to helping broadcasters in acute need.

“It is an honor to receive this award from the BROADCASTERS FOUNDATION OF AMERICA, and I am grateful to the Board for their commitment to our colleagues in need,” BARR said. “This year, the BROADCASTERS FOUNDATION rose to the challenge of helping so many of our colleagues who were impacted by hurricanes, floods, and wildfires. With the generous support of broadcasters across the country, the FOUNDATION can continue to make a difference in the lives of those who find themselves in devastating circumstances.”

“EMILY is a consummate broadcaster, whose leadership and service to the industry and the communities that the GRAHAM stations serve are commendable,” BROADCASTERS FOUNDATION Chairman DAN MASON said. “We are proud to honor her and recognize her accomplishments.”

The presenters and performers for this year’s GOLDEN MIKE AWARD dinner will be announced at a later date. For information, or to reserve a seat or table, please contact the BROADCASTERS FOUNDATION at (212) 373-8250 or info@thebfoa.org.
