Shannon Vossler (COM’08, CAS’08) of Memphis, Tenn., writes, “Although I work at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as the in-house media producer, my work last year with This Old House won a national Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lifestyle Series. I got a shiny statue and everything! It was an amazingly emotional project that highlighted a fantastic nonprofit, Homes for Our Troops, which builds specially adapted homes for disabled veterans. We traveled to Florida to meet recipients of some of these homes (and their families), and our hosts actually helped build one of the homes in New Hampshire. It was an incredible experience, and it’s very humbling that the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences appreciated our work so much to award us an Emmy.”
