Lowell Thomas Competition Archives

We have compiled lists of past winners as we celebrate nearly 40 years of the Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Competition. Our first awards were presented in 1985 for work published in 1984. For the first two decades, our contest ran on the calendar year, for work from January 1 through December 31. In 2001, the contest was changed to span spring to spring, overlapping years. Thus, clicking the year 2002 below brings up winners for work done in 2001-02. The following years are similar time spans.
