The Lucie Awards, produced by the Lucie Foundation, a nonprofit charitable foundation, honor the achievements of the world's most accomplished photographers, discover and cultivate emerging talent through mentoring and scholarship programs, and promote the appreciation of photography worldwide. The Lucie Foundation will also recognize the winners from the 2011 International Photography Awards (IPA) competition, the foundation's sister effort.
"I am so proud of the path the Lucie Awards has taken thus far," said Hossein Farmani, founder of the Lucie Awards.
