FOUNDATION AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT

The Foundation Award for Outstanding Achievement will be presented to Kim Jernigan, former editor of The New Quarterly. The NMAF is honoured to celebrate Kim's exceptional contributions to the Canadian magazine community by naming her the recipient of this award, which is the most prestigious individual prize presented each year since the NMAF's inception in 1990.

As a Master's student in Canadian literature at the University of Waterloo in 1981, Kim volunteered at the offices of the fledgling publication, which had been founded earlier that year by novelist Harold Horwood. In 1984 Kim succeeded Harold as editor of TNQ—also a volunteer position—and energetically guided the publication toward its place as one of Canada's best and most admired literary magazines. During her years as editor, TNQ was nominated for 44 National Magazine Awards, winning eight Gold and six Silver medals. Writers have praised her skillful editorial dexterity and tireless commitment to providing notes and feedback much as they have her cheerful promotion of their work. Miranda Hill of Quill & Quire described this mutual devotion between editor and writer as "The Jernigan Effect."

In her final year as editor, TNQ garnered eight National Magazine Awards nominations—the most ever by a literary magazine—and saw a young writer, Sierra Skye Gemma, win for Best New Magazine Writer. It is to her enduring credit that Kim has stewarded a small literary magazine towards not only financial stability and critical success, but also to a position as incubator of emerging talent and champion of literary arts in Canada.

Commended by her peers for her generosity, her integrity, her leadership and her contagious passion for Canadian literature, Kim Jernigan continues to serve as a mentor for TNQ and an inspiration to many young writers and editors.
