A note from the AAEC on Steve Benson

Our dear friend and former AAEC President and Pulitzer Prize winner Steve Benson had a stroke on February 21. He is recovering in a rehab facility in Phoenix and is expected to make a full recovery. We send Steve and his wife Clare our love and powerful vibes for a complete comeback.

Early last night, Steve’s wife posted an update on facebook: https://tinyurl.com/47jb227h
