Johnson, Erica Perez, Kendall Taggart, Jennifer Gollan, Ryan Gabrielson, Monica Lam, Steve Talbot, David Richter, Susanne Reber, Managing Editor Robert Salladay, Editorial Director Mark Katches and Executive Director Robert J.

California Watch's "On Shaky Ground," a series uncovering systemic failures in assuring public schools are constructed to be seismically safe, is a recipient of the IRE Medal, the organization's highest award.
