" Ed spends countless hours documenting news and events in Glendale, and without

photos, archived and live streaming video of Glendale events.

Ed shares this information freely with the Glendale Star // Glendale Chamber of
Commerce “Pulse” newspapers, // the Panorama Hills Monthly, // Banner Health’s
employee newspaper // and other media outlets.

Ed can be found covering almost every Glendale public event and helps our community
shine in the areas of economic development, diversity, sports, special events,

really been recognized locally for his time and efforts in tirelessly promoting
Glendale. Tonight it’s your turn… Ed Sharpe! Congratulations!"

"I am proud to accept this award! I record what exists around me and package and
distribute it." He added "There is credit due though to those around me for the
richness of the content which can be attributed to the interesting people and
activities in our city. As Glendale grows we get more people from all over moving
here with new businesses, activities and festivals. Pan you camera (or your eyes)
around ... it's a fascinating section of the world here!"

He continued " I would also like to take this time to thank all of those out there
in the publishing/media world and those in the government and private sector that
have offered me words of encouragement and guidance... I owe much to them and they
should not be forgotten. It was you belief in what I was doing that made this a
'reality' ."
