Welcome to our BRAND NEW website!

This is a very exciting time in the life of the Alliance for Women in Media and our Foundation (AWM/F)! As an organization with a rich history of more than 60 years, our leadership is proud to unveil a new website with fresh ways to engage and interact with AWM/F. Similar to your own personal and professional evolution, AWM is expanding upon our heritage as we capitalize the amazing opportunities afforded through new technologies. It is indeed the “new media frontier!”

The AWM/F Boards of Directors have been focused on our mission of connecting, recognizing and inspiring women across the industry. Our renewed focus is on creating value for YOU—the amazing women that make media a dynamic, evolving, inspirational field. We are developing new ways to become the premier, membership-based organization connecting smart, dedicated female professionals—whether seasoned or up-and-coming—in media to share ideas, experiences, and “Atta-Girls” through recognition events and professional development.

Additionally, we are getting ready to celebrate our 41st Annual Gracie Awards named for the late, great Gracie Allen. As Karla Ballard Williams, co-chair of the Gracies and Founder and CEO of YING stated, “The Gracies will be unapologetically diverse, loud, personal, funny, emotional and inspiring. Consistently, AWMF aims to reflect and lead in setting a platform where women take a seat at the head of the media industry.”

We are connecting the dots on everything AWM/F brings to you, and this site is YOUR pathway to engage with other media professionals. With a members-only area coming soon, new career resources, blog posts and regular updates on programs and experiences to keep you involved and in the know on what is happening across the landscape for women in media, we hope you will log on and get engaged with our many members and AMW/F directly.

The leaders, members and generous supporters of the past have brought us to this enlivened point and we appreciate the ongoing commitment from each person and company.

We invite you to visit often and share YOUR stories, feedback, involvement and more. Please reach out to me Kristen Welch and our Executive Director, Becky Brooks to stay connected.
