Talk Show Boot Camp Award Named For Ashwood

October 29, 2009: Talentmasters has announced that it is dedicating its first Talk Show Boot Camp, to be held November 14 in Atlanta, to late Fox Sports Radio VP/GM and executive producer Andrew Ashwood. Ashwood died of a heart attack in November 2008.

Additionally, Talentmasters is establishing an Ashwood Award, to be presented to an individual for discovering and mentoring talent.

Talentmasters President Don Anthony said, "Andrew was a great friend for 30 years. He always believed in talent and was a great mentor to many. For years, he encouraged me to extend our boot camp concept to the talk community, so it seems only appropriate to honor him in this way. There will never be another Andrew, but hopefully through this award, his legacy will carry on forever."
