2022 Illini Media Hall of Fame

11-04-2022 • 9分

Ann Dwyer is editor of Crain’s Chicago Business, the first woman to hold that position in the history of the business publication. She also writes editorials for Crain’s, for which she has earned several Peter Lisagor Awards from the Chicago Headline Club. She has also won awards for reporting, editing, and headline writing from the Illinois Press Association, the Illinois Associated Press Editors Association, and the Society of American Business Editors & Writers. That multitalented approach is also reflected in her Daily Illini career, where she was reporter, campus editor, summer editor-in-chief, copy editor, slot, night editor, and managing editor.

WPGU News Director Madison Holcomb sits down with Dwyer to discuss her time at the Daily Illini and her career since then.
