2005 Fellows

The fourth USC Annenberg/Getty Arts Journalism Fellowship took place May 5 to May 25, 2005. The 2005 Fellows were:

Mary Frances Emmons, Orlando Sentinel, Arts & Entertainment Editor. Emmons oversees the newspaper's weekly entertainment tabloid and arts coverage in the daily lifestyle section, and was instrumental in re-introducing daily arts coverage as a Sentinel cornerstone. An advocate for Central Florida arts, she runs her department with the conviction that her noted team of critics, reporters and columnists are integral to the national arts ecology.
Catherine Foster, Boston Globe, Arts Reporter. Foster, who specializes in theater coverage, produces features, profiles, national trend pieces, reviews, and a weekly column on theater news, as well as essays and book reviews. She has an equal love for foreign news and was the Globe's Assistant Foreign Editor. At the Christian Science Monitor, she served as Arts Editor, the Latin America Editor and Australia Correspondent.
Cliff Froehlich, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Arts & Entertainment Editor. While supervising the 13-member A & E staff, Froehlich contributes book, music and film reviews, as well as features. For 18 years, he served as chief film critic for the St. Louis alternative weekly, The Riverfront Times, where he was also arts editor. He has served as executive director of Cinema St. Louis, presenter of the St. Louis International Film Festival.
Rick Holter, The Dallas Morning News, Arts Editor. Holter conceived a live daily A & E section that is currently in prototype. His staff of 29 (14 of them critics) produce five sections weekly, a daily arts page and overnight reviews. Their work often appears on Page One. Holter also has a solid background in art design. At the St. Petersburg Times, the series he designed and supervised won the 1991 Pulitzer Prize for feature writing.
Alison Macadam, NPR's All Things Considered, Assistant Producer, Washington, DC. MacAdam produces long-term projects, writes copy -- including for her own occasional segments -- edits, mixes and pitches story ideas for NPR's nationally syndicated late afternoon show. With literature, classical violin and theater training in her background, MacAdam has invested six years in uncovering meaningful arts stories for public radio.
Joyce Morgan, The Sydney Morning Herald, Arts Editor. Morgan is responsible for editing daily arts pages and overseeing arts coverage across Australia's largest circulation broadsheet. A former senior arts writer for the Herald, she has also served as a producer and researcher for ABC Radio 2BL in Sydney. Born in Liverpool, England, Morgan has worked as a copy editor on The Guardian’s arts and foreign desks.
Lynn Neary, NPR’s Arts Desk, Correspondent, Washington, DC. When she joined NPR's Cultural Desk in 1993, Neary developed its first religion beat. Her reports on arts-related issues were a highly respected component of All Things Considered, which she weekend-hosted from 1984 to 1992. She continues to contribute significant arts stories to NPR as a member of its arts & information unit.
