2024 Fifty Over 50: The Age Disruptors

Each year, City & State and AARP New York identify a group of distinguished New Yorkers whose decades in local and state politics and government are worth recognition. This January, for the 9th year, we’re highlighting the contributions and legacies of fifty venerable New Yorkers with the Fifty Over 50 Awards: The Age Disruptors.

The awards honor leaders who have broken barriers, set the stage for future generations, helped create the New York we know and love, and serve as an inspiration to anyone who wants to make a difference in the state. Honorees will be profiled in the January 28th issue of City & State Magazine, and recognized at a special reception. Join us for a celebration of the dedicated New Yorkers who have amassed a long list of accomplishments over the course of their careers!
