A tribute to Dr. Janis H. Audin will air today on the AVMA Convention News Network television program.

The former AVMA editor-in-chief died April 22 at the age of 58. One month earlier, on March 23, AVMA Executive Vice President Dr. W. Ron DeHaven conferred on Dr. Audin the special title of editor-in-chief emeritus.

Dr. Audin began her career with the AVMA in 1985 as an assistant editor in the Publications Division. She was promoted to associate editor in 1989 and editor in 1994. By mid-April, 1995, Dr. Audin was serving as editor-in-chief and director of the Publications Division.

In addition, the show will feature the AVMA's Political Action Committee and Congressional Advocacy Network, local geoduck aquaculture, and today's first-ever AVMA Town Hall Meeting.

A new 30-minute show is shown each day, today through Tuesday, airing 24 hours a day on a continuous loop. The show broadcasts on televisions in the convention center and certain convention hotels.

Thill Media LLC and the AVMA Communications Division produce the news program for the AVMA with support from gold-level sponsor Fort Dodge Animal Health and co-sponsor Subaru of North America.
