Kendrick Frazier, Editor of the Skeptical Inquirer, has been presented the American Humanist Association's Humanist Pioneer Award for 1995. According to the AHA, the award is presented to those whose lifetime careers or special personal endeavors have contributed significantly to the advancement of the human condition in one or more special ways. In naming Frazier for the award, the AHA board "took special note of your efforts to counter pseudoscience, various frauds, and flummery where people's lives are diminished or threatened, and in addition for your efforts to publish the fine magazine that the Skeptical Inquirer is, a unique journal bringing needed information, to the general public and scientists, that would seldom be featured in institutional journals." The award was presented at the association's annual conference, May 19- 21, in Scottsdale, Arizona.
