Beacon Journal editor honored

Debra Adams Simmons, vice president and editor of the Akron Beacon Journal, was named the Athena Award recipient for the Akron area in an awards ceremony in Independence on Thursday night.

Named after the Greek goddess of wisdom and war, Athena Awards are presented across the country by local host organizations for the Athena Foundation in Chicago. Northeast Ohio's host is Inside Business, a regional business magazine.

Inside Business publisher Michael Maleski said Athena nominees were submitted by members of the business community and readers of the magazine. Maleski said the Akron area recipient was a unanimous choice of the judges.
