In a region of the country that has produced some of world’s best photojournalists, this year’s award recipients continue to demonstrate the excellence and quality in their prize winning photographs. On behalf of the BPPA I would like to express our gratitude to our sponsors and advertisers. Throughout this book you will see their names. These organizations and companies sustain BPPA, please support them. I want to convey my gratitude to the officers and board of directors for all their hard work. Our Chairman of the Board, Bob Howard does the work of at least 10 people. Countless hours have been put in by Michael Maloney, Marlene Karas, Jim Mahoney, Neal Hamberg, Mark Garfinkel and Charlie Krupa, along with Stephan Savoia, Mo Tate and Richard Chase. Without the hard work of these people BPPA would cease to exist. In a time of rapid change in our industry, with everyone having to work much harder, the time these people donate to BPPA is even more impressive. This year’s judges were Andrea Mohin of the New York Times, Lucien Perkins of the Washington Post and Sir Colin Finlay, who spent hours on each category. We express our gratitude to them for taking the time to come to Boston and judge. My thanks to Marlene Karas and Michael Maloney for all the hours and days spent on chairing this year’s contest. BPPA has had several positive things take place in the past year. Last year’s winning photographs are hanging in a show at Logan Airport. Some of the winning images from this year will replace the photographs presently on display at Logan. We are also working on a permanent exhibit at Logan Airport titled “Welcome to New England.” This year for the first this entire book will be posted on the website. My thanks to Jeff Mayes for creating our new web site and keeping it up to date. Neal Hamberg has created a new e-BPPA News Jim Mahoney organized and hosted our first multimedia workshop which was a great success. Thanks to the Museum of Fine Art for hosting one our meetings and inviting us to be their guests for the Josef Karsh exhibit. Bob Howard, Neal Hamberg and myself have had meetings with The Massachusetts State Police, the Transit Police and I have met with Commissioner Ed Davis of the Boston Police. I am pleased to say we have a good working relationship with each department. My congratulations to Commissioner Davis on receiving the Bob Howard Good Fellowship award, Jeff Twiss of the Boston Celtics, our Sports Personality of the Year and Joe Wrinn of Harvard News Office, our “Appreciation Award” winner. These people are a great help to us in doing our jobs. We know we can reach out to them when we need to. As things continue to change rapidly in our world and our profession there will always be a need for great still photographs. Where and how we publish our work may change, but nothing else has the impact of a brilliant still photograph. No one can take away our creativity and desire to tell the story one frame at a time. My wishes for you in the upcoming year are of one of prosperity and creativity and in this time of change and remember YES WE CAN!!!!
