ARRL graphic designers win national award

A nationwide panel of judges has selected ARRL Headquarters graphic designers Sue Fagan and Diane
Szlachetka as winners of the 2005 American Graphic Design Award.

The award was a result of their design contributions to a special advertising section in May 2005 QST. The award sponsor, Graphic Design USA is entering its 43rd year, and this competition is considered among the most prestigious, as well as open and democratic. Fagan and Szlachetka were among the 10 percent of nominees honored this year.

The award-winning piece will appear in the 300-page Graphic Design Annual, which will circulate in December to a national audience of influential creative decision makers, with thousands more distributed through the year at events, shows and conferences.

"We're all proud of Sue and Diane," said ARRL Marketing Manager Bob Inderbitzen, NQ1R. "Having such talent in-house is invaluable for producing quality material enjoyed by ARRL members."

Earlier this year, Fagan and Szlachetka collaborated on the design elements depicted in the graphic themes for ARRL EXPO at the 2005 Dayton Hamvention. Inderbitzen says the exhibits earned high praise from convention attendees.
