The National Magazine Awards, also known as the Ellie Awards, are a series of American awards that honor excellence in the magazine industry. They are sponsored by the American Society of Magazine Editors and administered by the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in New York City, New York. The awards have been presented annually since 1966.[1]
They are generally considered the highest award in the magazine industry; in the magazine world, they are roughly equivalent to the Pulitzer Prizes (which are far more widely known in the popular culture, but do not include a magazine category).[2][3]
Recipients of awards are selected in a two-step procedure: First, entries are reviewed by a judging panel, which recommends a group of finalists; then, a second panel of judges chooses one winner in each category.
The current categories are:
- General Excellence, News, Sports and Entertainment
- General Excellence, Service and Lifestyle
- General Excellence, Special Interest
- General Excellence, Literature, Science and Politics
- Design
- Photography
- Single-Topic Issue
- Website
- Multimedia
- Video
- Public Interest
- Personal Service
- Leisure Interests
- Magazine Section
- Reporting
- Feature Writing
- Feature Photography
- Essays and Criticism
- Columns and Commentary
- Fiction
- Magazine of the Year
Winners in each of the categories are awarded an "Ellie", a copper-colored stabile sculpture by Alexander Calder, resembling an elephant, which is manufactured by New York firm Society Awards. The National Magazine Awards web site has a searchable database of all the winners and top-five finalists.
Current categories
General Excellence
Honors print and digital magazines in six categories based on content and audience.
Businessweek received the first ever award in 1973. No award was given from 1974 to 1980. When General Excellence returned as a category in 1981, it was given to four magazines per year until 1998, when five magazines received General Excellence awards. Six magazines received awards in 2002. From 2003 to 2010, the award went to seven different magazines and in 2011, to eight. Since 2012, the award has gone to six magazines.

Former categories
National Magazine Award
For the first four years of the National Magazine Awards, only one award was given.
1966
- Look "for its skillful editing, imagination and editorial integrity, all of which were reflected particularly in its treatment of the racial issue during 1965.”
1967
- LIFE "in recognition of skillful, imaginative and constructive editing as reflected particularly in vivid photo reporting of the war in Vietnam, outstanding coverage of the civil rights issue, and effective support for the preservation of great works of art—in keeping with an admirable tradition of public education on cultural subjects.”
1968
- Newsweek "in recognition of that magazine's development of a new form of editorial analysis and advocacy in its major effort to present America's racial problems. The 'program of action,' published in Newsweek's issue of November 20, 1967, was a 23 page article combining reportage, analysis and opinion under the title 'The Negro in America: What Must Be Done.' The judges considered the project, clearly labeled as a departure from Newsweek’s standard policy, to have been skillfully and responsibly executed. They consider it a useful and important form, when sparingly used, in the news magazine field.”
1969
- American Machinist Magazine, a McGraw-Hill trade publication, which was recognized for its special issue, “Will John Garth Make It?” The study of U.S. industry’s role in combating unemployment, especially among those that companies might consider unemployable, included Mr. Garth, a 26-year-old high school dropout and parolee.
Certificates of Special Recognition
Identifying one winner was no doubt a challenge for the judges in the first years of the National Magazine Awards. It was decided from the start that Certificates of Special Recognition as well as commendations would be given.
1966
- Scientific American “for general excellence in its field and, particularly, for its special issue, drawing on many disciplines, dealing with the broad subject of urbanization”
- Grade Teacher “for its high quality treatment of important new subjects, conspicuously improved use of illustration and practical service to its readership—all within the limitations of a modest budget”
- Ebony “for imaginative and forceful treatment of social questions as reflected particularly in its issue on 'The White Problem in America'”
1967
- Motive “for editorial vitality, for tasteful innovation in design, and for forthright treatment of delicate issues that once would have been taboo in religious-affiliated publications"
1968
- Esquire “for its editorial creativity and diversity its original typographical and pictorial presentation, and its penetrating reporting of character and social trends as exemplified in its submitted article about Jack Ruby”
- LIFE “for its uncompromising and well documented series exposing the scale of organized crime in the United States and for its pursuit of new facets of the subject”
- Vogue “for visual grace, wit and innovation accompanied by printed content in harmony with its high graphic standard”
Commendation
Nine titles were commended at the first annual National Magazine Awards. This was the only year such recognition was given.
1966
- TIME "for the innovation of its well researched, expertly written and balanced series of ‘TIME Essays.’”
- The New Yorker “for its skillful editing and for its flair for dramatic innovation as demonstrated by its publication of Truman Capote’s ‘In Cold Blood.’"
- American Machinist Magazine “for its comprehensive treatment of the balance of payments problem as it affects industry.”
- Continuum “for its role, as a Roman Catholic magazine of small circulation, in delving into controversy and presenting strong conviction and thorough research in a handsome format.”
- Motive “for skillful and dramatic presentations of major issues in a small-circulation Protestant magazine.”
- Vogue “for its effective use of color in editorial pages.”
- Fortune “for its clear and thoughtful presentations, including its series offering a fresh look at the influence of automation.”
- TV Guide “for dealing thoughtfully with controversial topics in a setting where others might have settled for fan-appeal trivia.”
- LIFE “for overall skill in dealing with contemporary civilization, cultural subjects and public affairs.”
