By November 7, 2024

Submit your work (or a colleague’s work) for an MHA Award! Publishers: submit your author’s work!

Here are the awards for this year’s cycle:

  • The Jan Shipps Best Article Award: awarded to the author(s) of the published article or essay that best exemplifies the legacy of one of MHA’s most important founders, scholars, and leaders. Overall quality is a crucial consideration, as well as an author’s use of interdisciplinary tools, interpretive innovation, and/or incorporation of distinct Mormon traditions.
  • Best Article on Mormon Women’s History: awarded to the author(s) of an outstanding article on the experiences of Mormon women in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Sponsored by the Mormon Women’s History Initiative Team (MWHIT), an independent group of scholars from around the United States who encourage research, writing, and publications on Mormon women’s history.
  • Best International Article Award: Awarded to the author(s) of the best international Mormon history article (in print or online journals), in honor of Andrew Jenson, Assistant LDS Church Historian, for his outstanding contribution in documenting nearly every LDS congregation around the world.
