In an international, best-of-industry competition that rarely features more than one piece of art for a single newspaper, Akron Beacon Journal newsroom staff chalked up six that will appear in the 2005 edition of Creativity Annual.Two are by artist Kathy Hagedorn: a Premier section front featuring Rock Hall inductees and an Enjoy cover featuring Bobby “Blue” Band. Artist Rick Steinhauser and Tim Good, page designer, teamed up to produce an award-winning Outlook section cover. Steinhauser also earned recognition for a double-truck informational graphic about the new downtown library.
Artist Dennis Balogh and Edna Jakubowski, page designer, teamed up for a center spread in Enjoy featuring Robert Lockwood Jr. A sixth piece, featuring an illustration on home security, was done by former newsroom artist Jemal Brinson, who left the company last week to accept a position in Atlanta, Ga.
