Ted B. Sherwin Member of the Year Award
Having an appreciation for the history of our public relations profession is important. So, too, is having an appreciation for the history of the New Mexico Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America and those who came before us. It is for this long-standing dedication to the practice of public relations that the Board of Directors of NMPRSA created the Ted B. Sherwin Member of the Year Award in honor of Ted Sherwin, a founding member of our Chapter. The Sherwin Member of the Year Award is presented by the Board of Directors at the annual Cumbre Awards.
