- On November 1, FOLIO: magazine announced that Experience Life received a 2011 Eddie Award in editorial excellence for its pullout handbook, “Being Healthy Is a Revolutionary Act: A Manifesto for Thriving in a Mixed-Up World.” Authored by founding editor Pilar Gerasimo as part of her feature in Experience Life’s January-February 2011 “Change Your Life” issue, the manifesto inspired a companion Web initiative, RevolutionaryAct.com.
- “The central message of this manifesto, and of all the resources at RevolutionaryAct.com, is that each of us has the opportunity to reclaim responsibility for our own well-being, even in the face of real challenges,” says Gerasimo. “To me, this award feels like an affirmation of that message, and also a huge support of our magazine’s commitment to helping change the world for the healthier.”
- The Eddie and Ozzie Awards is the largest competition in magazine publishing and is held each year in New York City during the annual FOLIO: conference.
