PULITZER PRIZE WINNERS FROM OHIO
(Mr. BROWN of Ohio asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute.)
Mr. BROWN of Ohio. Mr. Speaker, I stand today to announce and commend
the 2005 winners of the Pulitzer Prize and take particular notice that
four of this year's winners are graduates of Ohio's public State
universities.
Walter Bogdanich, with the New York Times, won the Pulitzer for
National Reporting, getting a master's degree in journalism from Ohio
State.
Julia Keller, with the Chicago Tribune, won the Pulitzer for Feature
Writing after earning a doctoral degree in English from Ohio State.
Nick Anderson, with the Louisville Courier-Journal, won the Pulitzer
for Editorial Cartooning after graduating from Ohio State with a degree
in political science.
And of course I am most proud of my wife, Connie Schultz, of the
Plain Dealer in Cleveland who won the Pulitzer for Commentary. She
graduated from Kent State with a degree in journalism and was editor of
the Daily Kent Stater.
The Pulitzer defines excellence in journalism, and it is personally
gratifying to me that Ohio's public universities helped these talented
individuals achieve this extraordinary honor.
