Call for Martin Trailblazer Award Nominations
The Joanne Martin Trailblazer Award is presented once every two years. The award recognizes scholars who have taken a leadership role in the field of OMT by opening up new lines of thinking or inquiry. A Trailblazer is a boundary-spanner and a conversation starter, someone who extends and builds the OMT community by shepherding new ideas and new scholarship, often in unconventional ways. Actions that may indicate “trailblazing” behavior include starting up or moving forward a journal or scholarly series, organizing a conference or workshop, and beginning or continuing a conversation about a set of OMT ideas.
As a member of the OMT division, we encourage you to nominate someone for the prestigious Martin Trailblazer award. Nominations are accepted from all OMT Division members and should include details of the nominee’s trailblazing activities and letters of support.
Please send nomination materials to Christine Beckman ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) by December 31, 2011.
