Inquirer's Saffron Pulitzer finalist
Inga Saffron, The Inquirer's architecture critic, was honored as a finalist for the 2008 Pulitzer Prize in criticism.
In announcing the prizes Monday, the Pulitzer board cited Saffron for "her forceful critiques that illuminate the vital interplay between architecture and the life of her city." The prize was won by Mark Feeney, a visual-arts critic for the Boston Globe; the other finalist was Ann Hornaday of the Washington Post.
This is the second time Saffron has been short-listed for journalism's top prize. She was also a finalist in criticism in 2004.
