The New York Times Magazine and Topic were the only other publications to win more than one elephant-shaped award as they each took home two. For New York Times Magazine, it won in categories in essays and criticism for Getting Out, an essay about ex-convicts seeking a second chance in life, and in digital innovation for its Voyages issue. Topic took home its first two Ellies, in two video awards—for news and opinion for Black 14 as well as lifestyle for Noodle School.

The New Yorker took home the prize in four categories: reporting (Shallow Graves), feature writing (A Theory of Relativity), columns and commentary (three pieces by Doreen St. Félix) as well as public interest (No Refuge).

“Print and digital magazines continue to achieve new levels of excellence,” said Sid Holt, chief executive of the American Society of Magazine Editors. “Reporting, writing, photography and design—the 67magazines and websites we honored tonight do it all.”
