The news organization won best local magazine cover for THR’s 2024 “The Work Issue,” photographed by Fredrik Broden.
The Hollywood Reporter has taken home an award from the 2025 American Society of Magazine Editors’ best cover contest, the organization announced Thursday.
THR has been awarded the best local magazine cover for its 2024 “Work Issue,” which hit newsstands on October 30, 2024. The issue competed against four other finalists in the category including entries from New York magazine and Texas Monthly.
ASME’s best cover contest, judged by top editors, art directors and photo editors in the magazine industry, honored magazines in 10 different categories that range from news and politics to style, fashion and more. Other 2024 winners included The Atlantic, The Economist, New York and The New York Times Magazine. All issues were published in 2024.

The ASME best cover honor follows several art and photo awards from the Los Angeles Press Club’s SoCal Journalism Awards and National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards. In 2024, THR took home the SoCal Journalism awards for entertainment and culture photo essay, entertainment portrait photo, entertainment photo and NAEJ award for photo essay.
Last year, THR’s Lovia Gyarkye was honored with one of 2024’s ASME NEXT Awards for Journalists Under 30 during The National Magazine Awards. The awards – also known as the “Ellies,” a nickname derived from the Alexander Calder stabile elephant given to each winner — are considered among the most prestigious in digital and print journalism.
Gyarkye’s honor marked the ninth time that THR was nominated for a National Magazine Award. In 2014, THR scored its first-ever nod, for General Excellence, Special Interest; in both 2015 and 2016, the magazine won that category and also earned Magazine of the Year nominations. It also was nominated again in 2017, in 2019, in 2020, when it also won the award, and in 2022. In 2023, Christian Cody’s photo of Lupita Nyong’o for a THR cover story was nominated for best news and entertainment photograph.
