Photographer wins award for documenting drug court client's travails

From the March 4 Lexington (Ky.) Herald-Leader:

The 65th annual Pictures of the Year International competition announced Monday that Herald-Leader staff photographer David Stephenson won First Place for Best Multimedia, with his entry A New Dawn.

The multi-part audio slide show follows the struggle of Dawn Smith through Fayette County's Drug Court over nearly a four year period. The story was published in the Herald-Leader in a six part series last October. The multimedia project ran on Kentucky.com at the same time the story was published in the paper.

The project can still be seen at: www.heraldleaderphoto.com/2007/10/14/a-new-dawn/.
