American Urban Radio Networks (AURN) will sponsor its ninth annual Urban Knight Awards at the NAB/RAB 2010 Radio Show September 29-October 1 in Washington, DC. The awards, initiated in 2002 to honor individuals and companies for their efforts in reaching an Urban audience, will be presented at the Urban Knight reception on September 29.

This year Lew and John Dickey from Cumulus Media will be inducted into the Urban Knight Hall of Fame. "I've been in this business for four decades and for as long as I can remember the Dickey family has been committed to marketing the Black consumer marketplace," said AURN President of Program Operations & Affiliations Jerry Lopes.

He continued, "They've always had a significant number of urban stations in their radio portfolio and those stations have stood the test of time effectively serving African Americans in small and medium sized markets throughout this country."

Urban Knight Award recipients this year also include:

• Doug Abernethy, Regional VP Radio One/Houston
• Oveda Brown, Multicultural Marketing Manager/Arbitron
• Adriane Gaines, President & GM WWRL/New York
