Millgate takes first place for Environment Reporting

Kris Millgate

Congratulations to Kris Millgate for taking first place in the Environment Reporting -- Daily Print category at the Idaho Press Club banquet, which was held Saturday night in Boise. Millgate took the honor for a story she wrote for the Post Register, "Return of the River."

Millgate started her multi-media company, Tight Line Media, in 2006 after leaving traditional TV journalism. In addition to the weekly "Time Out" segments that air on KPVI-TV, she is a documentary film-maker. Her film "Sanctuary," about recovering elk habitat in New Mexico, won best outdoor story from the Outdoor Writers Association of America and is on tour this year with the Wild & Scenic Film Festival.
