Minard Editor Award


The Minard Editor Award is given annually as part of the Gerald Loeb Awards to recognize business editors "whose work does not receive a byline or whose face does not appear on the air for the work covered." The award is named in honor of Lawrence Minard, the former editor of Forbes Global, who died in 2001. The first award was given posthumously to Minard in 2002. The jury panel decided not to give the 2022 award.
