“I’ve taken part in the IAMA’s since its inception,” explained Noeth, “At first, only as a hopeful entrant, to find out
how to improve my writing and photography storytelling skills. Years later, the administrators asked me to judge
some categories and I found the volunteer effort to be as rewarding as it was educational – we’ve got some
dandy fine motoring media folks at work in the world! When asked to step into the Chief Judge position, after
entering three pieces of my own, I accepted only after it was clear my entries would get a beating if they
deserved it. That those works finished Gold, Silver and Bronze tells me honest, serious peer review was done. I‘m
grateful. As I see it, my readers are the REAL winners because I believe it critical to never stop tweaking the
talents the good Lord saw fit to give me.”

Noeth shares the Bronze award with Kevin Reynolds, Art Director at the Goodguys Goodtimes Gazette.
