Congratulations to Howard Ruffner author of Moments of Truth: A Photographer’s Experience of Kent State 1970 for being selected as a finalist in the 2020 Ohioana Book Awards, About Ohio category. The book is an important and visually arresting book that examines the past to understand & look to the future.

“This wonderful collection is just what its title promises: moments of personal truth, moments of photographic proof, and moments of historical truth, all flowing together into a powerful river of memory. All credit to Howard Ruffner. The tragedy of May 4, 1970, is both well served and generously honored by these words and images.”
—Howard Means, author of 67 Shots: Kent State and the End of American Innocence
