Sergio just called me from the Harvey Awards ceremony in Baltimore, where he is the keynote speaker.

I won the Harvey Award for lettering. It's my first Harvey.

Congratulations! :D

I know my mental image of a statue of a large white rabbit is incorrect, but it is the first image to pop into my head when I hear "Harvey Award".
