The Ethel N. Fortner Writer and Community Awards
The Ethel N. Fortner Writer and Community Awards were instituted in 1986 to honor a friend of writers and frequent contributor to the St. Andrews Review. Fortner earned a Master of Arts degree from Columbia University in New York. After a career in teaching at the Oregon School of the Blind, she and her husband moved to Estacada, Ore. She committed herself to writing and became editor of Human Voice Quarterly. A frequent contributor to the St. Andrews Review, she was the earliest benefactor of the St. Andrews Press. She believed that a full community embraced and encouraged the craft of writing. |

The Evans Distinguished Fellows program started in 1983 with the naming of James T.Laney, the 17th president of Emory University. The Fellowship is named for E.

He was also chairman of the board of the Durham Life Insurance Company after having been the founder and initial director of the State Capital Life Insurance Company that merged with Durham Life in 1970. He was active in the organization and development of both Scotland Memorial Hospital and Scotland County Memorial Library. For many years, he was a ruling elder in Laurinburg Presbyterian Church and a trustee of Union Theological Seminary in Richmond, Va.The Fellowship recognizes people “who are known for the rigor of their intellect, for the depth and breadth of their concerns and competency, and who have gained broad recognition for their wisdom in relating the humane values of the Judeo-Christian tradition to the pressing issues of our time.” |
