Do You Recognize an AAJA Voices Friend?
It has been 20 years since the first edition of Voices was published, so AAJA is putting together an interactive and a video in time for this year’s convention.
Katie Nelson is trying to contact alumni from the Asian American Journalists Association’s news project, especially from 1991, 1992, 1993, 1996 and 1998.
Do you recognize anyone from 1992?
What about 1996?
Do you have other Voices-related photos to share? And if you’re willing to write a few sentences about how Voices helped you, please contact Katie. Be sure to include your name as you want it printed, as well as where you are now and your work title.
“I think back to the first time I realized I wanted to be a journalist. That was in the summer of 2006, when I flew out to New York City as a high school student to take part in J Camp. Since then, I’ve pieced together a roundabout way to get firsthand journalism experience while at a school that doesn’t have a journalism major, and the mentors I met at J Camp continue to guide me through the otherwise incomprehensible maze of finding internships, snagging interviews and doing everything else it takes to break into the industry in the 21st century.”
