Call for Martin Trailblazer Award Nominations
The Joanne Martin Trailblazer Award is presented once every two years.
The award recognizes scholars who have taken a leadership role in the
field of OMT by opening up new lines of thinking or inquiry. A
Trailblazer is a boundary-spanner and a conversation starter, someone
who extends and builds the OMT community by shepherding new ideas and
new scholarship, often in unconventional ways. Actions that may
indicate “trailblazing” behavior include starting up or moving forward
a journal or scholarly series, organizing a conference or workshop,
and beginning or continuing a conversation about a set of OMT ideas.

As a member of the OMT division, we encourage you to nominate someone
for the prestigious Martin Trailblazer award. Nominations are accepted
from all OMT Division members and should include details of the
nominee’s trailblazing activities and letters of support.
