Grissom Wins the Prestigious W.A.V.E.
Award ~ No Longer Has Lucci Complex
For three years in a row, local artist
and television producer Shannon Grissom has been a W.A.V.E. award (Western
Alliance Video Excellence) finalist for her television series, Give Your
Walls Some Soul. To date, she's received 6 nominations but did not
get the top award. That situation changed Saturday night when
Grissom came home with the W.A.V.E. award in the instructional category.
Grissom is truly thankful. "It means a lot for me to receive the award in
the instructional category. It lets me know that I'm on a track with
our show. I'm also happy I didn't have to wait as long as Susan
Lucci for an award!"
The winning episode, "This Sock Monkey
Has Soul, Part 3" competed against shows throughout Arizona, California,
Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, and New Mexico. The W.A.V.E. awards were
established in 1998 to promote and recognize excellence in local community
programming.
