– Peabody Board of Jurors
The Peabody Awards honor the most powerful, enlightening and invigorating stories in broadcast and digital media. Each year, Peabody Awards are bestowed upon a curated collection of 30 stories that capture society’s most important issues. Honorees must be unanimously chosen by the Peabody Board of Jurors, a diverse assembly of industry professionals, media scholars, critics, and journalists who each bring a unique perspective of what constitutes a story that matters.
Minding the Gap is now available to stream on Hulu and playing in theaters and at festivals worldwide.
