The Gracie Awards, presented by the Alliance for Women in Media Foundation (AWMF), has opened the call for entries for its 49^th Annual Gracie Awards.

Becky Brooks, AWMF president, said: “For nearly five decades, The Gracie Awards have illuminated the trailblazing work of women in media and stand as a tribute to exceptional content produced by, for, and about women and we look forward to celebrating and honoring those who continue to shape the landscape of news and entertainment. As our primary annual fundraising event, the Gracies empower the Foundation to fulfill its mission of advancing women in media through scholarships and programming.

The 49th Annual Gracie Awards will once again shine a spotlight on exceptional talent across various media categories, including radio, television, streaming, and podcasting, from creatives, including writers, broadcast journalists and actors, to technical categories, including producers, directors and showrunners. Entries are invited from media professionals, networks, and organizations, showcasing their dedication to advancing the portrayal and representation of women’s voices in media content.

Again taking on the roles of co-chairs for the awards are Heather Cohen, executive vice president at The Weiss Agency; Annie Howell, chief communications officer at Hallmark Media; and Mike McVay, president of McVay Media Consulting.
