I'm delighted to share my editor's message with you...

The Society of American Business Editors and Writers (SABEW) announced that Harriet was one of three business journalists at mid-sized papers across the country named best columnist in its annual Best in Business contest.

Here is an excerpt of what the judges had to say:

Harriet Johnson Brackey helps readers navigate the complexities of the economy and personal finance with deft,
demonstrating a keen knowledge of her topics without speaking down to readers. More importantly, she delivers real utility, speaking directly to the issues affecting average people. Her column on the panel of financial planners who took readers' questions for three hours offered real insight into their fears and practical solutions for overcoming them.
