Northwestern University Professor Receives Award
Abe Peck, a Northwestern University journalism professor for the past 28 years who is retiring, will receive the American Society of Business Publications’ Lifetime Achievement Award. The award honors commitment to editorial excellence and to the B-to-B press.
Peck is currently the Chair of Journalism & Cross-Media Storytelling at the Medill School, where he holds both the Helen Gurley Brown professor and its Theodore R. and Annie Laurie Sills professorship.
A magazine specialist whose journalistic roots were in the “alternative press” of the 1960s and 1970s, Peck is also involved with the prestigious Media Marketing Center.
In addition to his magazine-related work at the school, Peck has represented business-to-business publications over the years. He has served as consultant to Advanstar Communications, a large B-to-B publisher, for which he helps lead editorial performance reviews in the U.S. and U.K.
Peck will receive the award during a luncheon ceremony at ASBPE’s National Editorial Conference July 23-25 in Kansas City, Mo.
