Chris Cash, the founder and Publisher Emeritus of Georgia Voice, has been named to the LGBTQ Journalists Hall of Fame.
The LGBTQ Journalists Hall of Fame was launched by the Association of LGBTQ Journalists to honor outstanding LGBTQ journalists who have advanced fair and accurate coverage of LGBTQ communities and issues. The LGBTQ Journalists Hall of Fame has honored 51 individuals to date.
Cash was the original founder, publisher, and executive editor of the Southern Voice until she sold the paper in 1997, nine years after its foundation in 1988. The paper lasted until 2009, when Window Media – the company that purchased Southern Voice – closed its doors. It was then that she worked alongside then Southern Voice editor Laura Douglas-Brown and former Southern Voice sales rep (and current Georgia Voice publisher and managing partner) Tim Boyd to create Georgia Voice in 2010.
During her career, she served as editor for the Kennesaw State Sentinel, worked as a volunteer for LGBTQ advocacy groups like the Atlanta Committee, for whom she edited their monthly newsletter.
Cash will be inducted at the Association of LGBTQ Journalists 2022 National Convention in Chicago this weekend alongside documentary filmmaker Debra Chasnoff and former Boston Globe editor Michelle Johnson.
