MM+M claimed another Jesse H. Neal Award for the work of editor-at-large Marc Iskowitz at the 70th Neal Awards Ceremony in New York on Friday afternoon. Iskowitz was honored once again for Best Range of Work by a Single Author for a brand with revenue between $3 million and $7 million.
For Iskowitz, a 15-year veteran of MM+M, this represents his third consecutive victory in the category. Iskowitz is an invaluable member of the MM+M editorial team, writing in-depth features for the print publication as well as his must-read weekly 7-Day Supply column in addition to daily stories. He also hosts the weekly MM+M Podcast and moderates numerous industry events on behalf of the brand.
MM+M had also been nominated for its annual Agency 100 issue in the category of Best Single Issue of a Tabloid/Newspaper/Magazine for a brand with revenue between $3 million and $7 million.
Last year, MM+M won for Best Art Direction for a Cover for a brand with revenue between $3 million and $7 million for its August 2023 print edition, Medical Marketing’s LGBTQIA+ Blind Spot. Taking home the award was Sean Ayling, senior art director at Haymarket Media.
