“This 50th season of the Gracie Awards has been nothing short of extraordinary,” said AWM/F President, Becky Brooks. “From Beverly Hills to New York City, we celebrated the voices, stories, and achievements of women who shape our media landscape in powerful and profound ways. It has been an honor to spotlight both legends and rising talent, and to continue our mission of amplifying the contributions of women in media — now and for the next 50 years.”
