Recognizing Contributions to Diplomacy

The Academy annually grants the prestigious Annenberg Award for Excellence in Diplomacy, the Arthur Ross Award for Distinguished Reporting & Analysis of Foreign Affairs, and the Douglas Dillon Book Award to individuals for their significant contributions to the field of diplomacy. The ceremony is normally held each year in late fall/early winter in the Benjamin Franklin Room of the US Department of State. However, the 2021 Awards Luncheon was held at the DACOR Bacon House on November 9, 2021.
