Irene Adler Prize
$1,000
The Irene Adler Prize — $1,000 Scholarship Supporting Women Writers
Intro
Writing has opened doors and taken me to extraordinary places: from Sweden to South Africa, from covering the Golden Globes to the women’s Olympic hockey final. I’ve photographed a polar bear and her cubs and interviewed figures ranging from ABBA to Jennifer Garner and Katarina Witt. Throughout my career I have been helped, encouraged and given opportunities by many women — editors, teachers, librarians, publicists, agents and fellow writers. It feels right to give something back.
To that end I am launching the Irene Adler Prize: a $1,000 scholarship...
