Nevada Press Association The best in Nevada journalism since 1924
Elko Daily Free Press Advertising Director Nancy Streets was elected president of the Nevada Press Association at the organization’s Annual Meeting in Reno on Sept. 18. It will be Streets’ second tour of duty as NPA’s leader. She also served as the group’s president in 2007-08.
“I’m honored to be able to serve as NPA’s president for a second time,” said Streets. “I look forward to help leading it through our recent restructuring and our new and different relationship with the Nevada Press Foundation.”
Several other members were re-elected to the board at the meeting, including Ric Anderson, editorial page editor of the Greenspun Media’s Las Vegas Sun, and Brian Duggan, executive editor of the Reno Gazette Journal. Anderson and Duggan were elected First VP and Second VP, respectively. Duggan had served as NPA President since last year’s Annual Meeting.
Also reelected to a seat as board officer was Scott Sibley, publisher of Nevada Legal News, who continues to serve as Treasurer. All of the officer positions on the board are one-year terms.
Reelected as directors for two-year terms were Jen Anderson, editor of Winnemucca Publishing; Steve Ranson, editor emeritus of Lahontan Valley News; and Daniel Rothberg, environmental report for The Nevada Independent.
Anastasia Hendrix, managing editor of the Las Vegas Review-Journal (pictured above), was the only new board member elected at the meeting. Hendrix fills a seat vacated by Review-Journal Executive Editor Glenn Cook, who is also a member of the Nevada Press Foundation Board of Trustees.
