DESCRIPTION:	Maria Shriver to Present 'Excellence in Television On Air' Honor to Mary Hart at the American Women in Radio & Television Southern California 2010 GENII AWARDS Burbank, CA (Wednesday, March 24, 2010) - California's First Lady, Maria Shriver, will present the prestigious Excellence in Television On Air Award to Mary Hart, host for "Entertainment Tonight," during the American Women in Radio & Television Southern California (AWRT SoCal) 2010 Genii Awards to be held Wednesday, April 14 at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. The 2010 Show, marks the 53rd year of the Genii Awards produced by the non-profit organization AWRT SoCal and is dedicated to recognizing the 'Best of the Best' within the media industry. "Mary Hart is a trailblazer in entertainment journalism and a role model for women in media. Her remarkable career has touched the lives of millions of viewers from around the world," said Maria Shriver. "I am thrilled to present the Excellence in Television On Air Award to this extraordinary woman." Maria Shriver is a trailblazer herself and has used her voice to advocate on behalf of women by creating groundbreaking programs and initiatives that honor people she calls "Architects of Change" in their own lives and the lives of others. As an award-winning journalist and producer, best-selling author and mother of four, Shriver has transformed the office of First Lady by approaching it as a job with real purpose and a platform to make a difference. Shriver became California's First Lady when her husband, Arnold Schwarzenegger, became the 38th Governor of California on November 17, 2003. Combining her journalist's eye for the needs of real people, with her passion for service and activism, as First Lady, Shriver developed WE programs motivating people to unite and get involved across gender, economic, and party lines. Shriver's message to all Californians is to look within and find out what "WE can do together when WE come together." "We are very excited to have Maria Shriver present the Excellence in Television On Air Award to Mary Hart at the 53rd annual Genii Awards," states Laura Behrman, President of American Women in Radio & Television, Southern California. "Ms. Shriver's continued good works and advocacy on behalf of women embodies the very heart of our organization's mission. We are fortunate to be surrounded with these accomplished women in media who have genuinely made a difference in our profession and through their efforts have removed obstacles and paved the way for future generations of women to walk in their footsteps."

ANNENBERG FACULTY IN SPECIALIZED JOURNALISM

COMPANY:

USC ANNENBERG SHCHOOL FOR COMMUNICATIONS & JOURNALISM

LOCATION:

LOS ANGELES, CA

DESCRIPTION:

Specialized Journalism:
A Program Designed for the Future

Welcome to the USC Annenberg School of Journalism, and to our Master's Programs in Specialized Journalism.

These are not your typical journalism M.A. programs. (Though we also have an excellent one of those.) In this innovative nine-month program, we have a different aim: As journalism is reinventing itself, we are reinventing the journalism academy, here in this incomparable learning laboratory of the future, Los Angeles.

Consequently, your fellow students will be atypical, as well. The remarkably interesting group we assemble each year brings artists and arts journalists of every stripe together with journalists eager to go deep into science, demographics, education, religion and a feast of other disciplines. Their work has appeared in the legacy media as well as Neon Tommy, Huffington Post and other online sites.

You will design your own curriculum, ranging across the offerings of this vibrant and richly interdisciplinary University. Along the way, we throw in some key enhancements: The updates in digital skills and social networking, an entrepreneurial mindset and a sense of the emerging lay of the journalistic land that will equip you to be a leader in journalism's reinvention.

We have hired some of the best minds in the new-media world and melded them with our distinguished journalism faculty. And all of this exists within the exciting environment of a full-service School of Communication and Journalism that values the creation of new knowledge about this age-old craft we call journalism, as well as the many different ways we can now serve the public's information needs. And, assuming you can carve out the time, you can participate in Annenberg's news outlets on every platform and take advantage of the unparalleled diversity of experiences that Southern California offers.

I surely hope you will consider joining us here at Annenberg, where journalism's future is looking brighter every day.
