Announcing the 2026 Livingston Award winners

Posted

Yesterday, the Livingston Awards honored exceptional journalists under the age of 35 for outstanding work in local, national and international reporting. This year’s winning stories include a local investigation into cases of abuse in New Hampshire’s taxpayer-funded, state-regulated disability care system; the devastating human impact of the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE’s) sweeping policy changes; and powerful documentary videos sharing first-person accounts from three men detained by ICE and deported to a notorious prison in El Salvador. The $10,000 prizes are for work released in 2025.

The Livingston Awards also honored Martin Baron, former executive editor of The Washington Post, The Boston Globe and The Miami Herald, with the Richard M. Clurman Award for mentoring.

Clurman, former chief of correspondents for Time-Life News Service and the architect of the Livingston Awards, the prize is presented annually to a veteran journalist who has had a profound impact on the development and careers of journalists.
