Taylor takes third in the San Diego SPJ contest

SAN DIEGO – Nathalie Taylor, a Reeder Media associate since 2003, took third place in the Food division from the San Diego Society of Professional Journalists. Taylor has won 95 professional journalism awards since 2004 and has taken many of the photos that accompanied her stories.

The 1,500 word article, "Struggle and Triumph – Fallbrook Restaurants that Survived the Pandemic," was published in the Sourcebook Magazine – a Reeder Media publication.

Excerpts: "...restaurants that were usually a buzzing hive of activity had lost most of their buzz. During the lockdown, the charged atmosphere of the bustling restaurants was just a memory. Fortunately, the delicious fare in many of the establishments remained constant – it was just served in take-out containers!"

Taylor, who holds a BA degree in English from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, was seated on the Alumni Advisory Board for the university's College of Liberal Arts/English Department from 2011 to 2018. Since 2015, she has been a San Diego Press Club Honorary Committee member.
