Journalists who faced personal danger to cover wars in Iraq and Africa, and others who exposed perilous working conditions, predatory lending practices and the sexual exploitation of homeless children, were among the winners of 14 George Polk Awards for 2003 announced yesterday by Long Island University.
Carolyn Cole of The Los Angeles Times won the Polk Award in photojournalism for what the judges called her "brutally honest" and "epic and intimate" portraits of the wars in Iraq and Liberia.
The Polk Awards, established in 1949 and administered by Long Island University, are based on recommendations by a national committee of news executives, journalism teachers and working journalists; final selections are made by a panel of faculty members and alumni of the university.
