On October 4, 2007, Maggie Rivas-Rodriguez, associate professor at the University of Texas at Austin received the 2007 Leadership Award by the National Association of Hispanic Journalists.
A veteran in the fight for diversity in media, Rivas-Rodriguez spearheaded a national campaign this year to ensure that the experiences of Latino World War II veterans and their families be included in a meaningful way in the upcoming Ken Burns' 14-hour epic documentary titled THE WAR to be aired this month on PBS. Under Rivas-Rodriguez' lead, the U.S. Latino and Latina World War II Oral History Project has collected interviews with more than 500 veterans as part of an effort to have their stories reach wider audiences. For Rivas-Rodriguez, who created some now longstanding educational programs for NAHJ, this effort regarding THE WAR is the latest example of her long-established leadership in the newsroom and in the classroom for diversity in news media.

On October 4, 2007, Gary Coronado, photographer for The Palm Beach Post received the 2007 Photojournalist of the Year Award by the National Association of Hispanic Journalists.
Coronado was nominated as a finalist in the Pulitzers for his vivid images of Central Americans, who risk life and limb to enter the United States as they jump, and in some cases, cling on to trains heading north. His stellar work truly told the story through photographs, something all photographers aspire to as journalism moves closer to melding print and multimedia for maximum impact. A graduate of University of Southern California, Coronado quit his job handling medium-size corporate accounts for AT&T to become a freelance photographer for the Orange County Register in Orange County, California and La Opinión, a Spanish daily newspaper located in Los Angeles, California.

On October 4, 2007 Rebecca Aguilar, general assignment reporter, KDFW-TV Fox 4, Dallas received the 2007 Broadcast Journalist of the Year Award by the National Association of Hispanic Journalists.
Named "Texas Reporter of the Year" two years ago by the Associated Press, Emmy-award winning journalist Rebecca Aguilar often focuses on people who don't have a voice. She is the kind of journalist who contributes every day to fulfilling NAHJ's mission of fair coverage and journalism excellence. Her work also makes a difference. For instance, she pieced together an investigative story about how registered sex offenders were delivering mail. Her report changed the hiring procedure for the post office across the United States.

On October 4, 2007, Dianne Solis, senior writer for The Dallas Morning News, received the 2007 Frank del Olmo Print Journalist of the Year Award by the National Association of Hispanic Journalists.
In 2006, during a year when immigration was such a central and controversial topic in the national debate, Solis' stories on immigration were rewarding reads no matter which side of the debate one takes. Solis, a veteran journalist who has developed an expertise in several areas, is credited with telling stories in ways that convey both the logic and the emotion behind the people and issues involved. Her keen understanding of the frequently emotional issues relating to immigration is apparent, as is her fairness.
