The Hartford Courant

"For almost as many years he's been NPPA's voice on matters of ethics and standards, and he led NPPA through a complete rewrite of the Code of Ethics as photojournalism entered the digital era"
Recently retired Courant photographer John Long has been awarded the National Press Photographers Association's highest honor.

Long and Kenny Irby of the Poynter Institute for Media Studies have received the 2007 Joseph A. Sprague Memorial Award. Long recently retired from a 35-year career as a photojournalist and picture editor and is an NPPA past president.

The Sprague Award is given to a photojournalist "who advances, elevates, or attains unusual recognition for the profession of photojournalism by conduct, initiative, leadership, skill, and devotion to duty," the group said.Long and Irby will be presented with their awards at a June 2 event in Portland, Ore.
