Esquire Nominated for Seven National Magazine Awards

On Wednesday, The American Society of Magazine Editors named Esquire a finalist for seven awards in five categories, including General Excellence. It is the most nominations for any monthly magazine (and among weeklies is surpassed only by The New Yorker, which received nine nominations). In two categories -- Feature Writing and Best Magazine Section -- we were nominated twice. The winners will be announced May 1.
The Esquire Finalists
Reporting
"The School"
By C.J. Chivers
On the first day of school in 2004, a Chechen terrorist group struck the Russian town of Beslan. Targeting children, they took more than eleven hundred hostages. The attack represented a horrifying innovation in human brutality. Here, an extraordinary accounting of the experience of terror in the age of terrorism.

Feature Writing
"Sgt. Wells's New Skull"
By Brian Mockenhaupt
In the epidemic of brain injuries coming out of the war, Army neurosurgeons had never seen someone survive such a devastating wound. But Brian Wells jokes that he just left part of his head in Iraq. Someday, he says, he'll have to go back and get it.
"The Loved Ones"
By Tom Junod
It's been a year since Hurricane Katrina destroyed New Orleans. In all that time -- almost sixteen hundred dead, half the population still gone, the city still a festering skeleton of itself -- only two people have been blamed for anything: Sal and Mabel Mangano.

Best Bars in America, 2006
Leisure Interests
"Esquire's Best Bars in America, 2006"
You know a great bar when you're in one. If it's a dive, it's a Christ-this-place-is-a-dive dive. If it's an Irish pub, it's not an "Irish" pub. If it's a cocktail lounge, it's got some Tanqueray Ten and a bottle of rye somewhere. This story is about those places.
Other Nominations
Esquire was also nominated for General Excellence and twice for Magazine Section, for "This Way In" and also "Man at His Best."
