What exactly is a Genesis award?
Thanks!
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The Beginning, according to http://www.hsus.org/about_us/offices_and_affiliates/hsus_hollywood_office/the_genesis_awards/20th_anniversary_genesis_awards/The-Genesis-Awards-Celebrating-the-Major-Media.html:
QUOTE
In 1986, the Genesis Awards event was launched by animal advocate and actress Gretchen Wyler, under the aegis of The Fund For Animals. Wyler came up with the idea because she strongly believed that rewarding members of the media encouraged them to spotlight more animal issues, thus increasing public awareness and compassion toward animals. The first annual event—a luncheon drawing only 140 attendees—quickly grew into a large gala in Beverly Hills, Calif., with more than 1,000 guests.
In 1991, Wyler founded The Ark Trust, Inc., which continued to present the Genesis Awards. In 1990, the program became a television special airing, first on the Discovery Channel and then on Animal Planet. In August 2002, The Ark Trust joined forces with The HSUS, changing its name to the Hollywood Office of The HSUS. Wyler, as vice president of The HSUS Hollywood Office, continued her role as chairperson of the event and executive producer of the Genesis Awards Television Special until her 2006 retirement.
