AGU Fall Meeting: David Perlman and Andrew Grant

David Perlman (left), the legendary science editor at the San Francisco Chronicle, speaks with Science News' Andrew Grant, in the press room during the American Geophysical Union's Fall Meeting last month.


Grant received the David Perlman Award for Excellence in Science Journalism–News Award in 2014, accepting his award during the meeting.


The award "recognizes excellence in science news reporting," for stories "prepared with a deadline of one week or less," and comes with a $5,000 prize.


At Andrew's request, I snapped a few photos of him standing with the man for whom the award is named.
