Editor & Publisher, a news organization covering the newspaper and publishing industry since 1884, has named Mary Beth Franklin a 2021 winner of its EPPY Award for excellence in digital content.

Her "On Retirement” column won an EPPY in the content category for best business/finance blog for sites with fewer than 1 million unique visitors. Judges noted that one of her columns stood out for her “well-written description of the contents of a report of an online study of how attitudes about retirement have been affected by the pandemic.”

This year’s award contest received more than 400 entries across more than 40 categories.

“I’m thrilled and honored by this recognition,” said Franklin, who has been an InvestmentNews contributing editor for a decade. “I also want to thank InvestmentNews for giving me such a broad and respected platform to reach advisers and their clients.”
