The Missouri Photojournalism Hall of Fame in Columbia will induct four award-winning photojournalists on Oct. 19.
This will be the 19th group of inductees since the founding of the Hall of Fame in 2005. Inductees are the late Randy Cox; Dennis Crider of West Plains; Sally Stapleton of Columbia; and Jill Toyoshiba of Kansas City.
Photographs made by the inductees will be on display during the 4 p.m. ceremony and reception in the Sam B. Cook Hall at the Center for Missouri Studies, the State Historical Society of Missouri’s location in downtown Columbia. Those photographs will join the Hall of Fame’s collection of work by inductees.
The Photojournalism Hall of Fame was founded at the urging of Bill Miller Sr., publisher of the Washington Missourian newspaper, to recognize outstanding contributors to visual communication with ties to Missouri.
