Trey Graham, a City Paper theater critic since 1995, is the winner of the 2003-04 George Jean Nathan Award for Dramatic Criticism. The awards committee -- composed of the chairs of the English departments of Cornell, Princeton, and Yale, among other experts -- commended Graham for writing "with sensitivity and flair about the individual masterworks of the British and American canon," calling him "adept at linking these and other works from the past with the best the present has to offer." Past winners of the award include Walter Kerr and Hilton Als.
