Honoring Anthony Shadid (1968-2012)

Mark Pitsch, a 1989 UW-Madison graduate and former Daily Cardinal writer and editor, will represent the Cardinal and DCAA on a UW Foundation committee that will discuss how best to use a fund created to honor Anthony Shadid. Shadid graduated from UW in 1990 with degrees in journalism and political science along with dedicated service to the Daily Cardinal campus newspaper.  He went on to win two Pulitzer prizes for his work covering the Middle East. Shadid passed away on Feb. 16 from an apparent asthma attack. For more information on the Anthony Shadid Memorial Fund, or to make a gift, please contact Jennifer Karlson at the UW Foundation  (+1 608 262 7225) or to make a gift online, please visit the Shadid Fund.
