Hathaway Brown is pleased to announce that senior Regina Egan and sophomore Rebecca Oet have earned national recognition in The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards of 2018. Regina was honored with a Silver Medal for her Personal Essay/Memoir titled "Papa," and Rebecca earned a Silver Medal for her Poetry: "Skin."
Scholastic national medalists have been identified by panels of creative professionals as the most talented young artists and writers in the nation. This year, 350,000 works of art and writing were submitted by students in grades 7-12, and less than one percent of work was recognized at the national level. This is the sixth of seven years that HB students have earned national recognition in the Scholastic program. Since 1923, The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards have recognized the outstanding work of teenagers from across the country. By winning a Scholastic Art & Writing Award, these HB students join a legacy of celebrated authors and artists including Andy Warhol, Sylvia Plath, Truman Capote, Richard Avedon, Robert Redford, John Currin, and Lena Dunham.
Congratulations to these gifted writers and many thanks to the HB faculty who continue to educate, inspire, encourage, and mentor them. For more information about the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, please visit the program's official website.
