The Steven D. Gold Award is given annually by National Tax Association, the Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management (APPAM), and the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL). The award is presented by one of the organizations each year. NTA presented the first Gold Award in 1997.
The award honors professionals who have made significant contributions to state and local fiscal policy and whose work reflects Steve Gold’s remarkable ability to span the interests of scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and advocates with integrity and evenhandedness. Steve Gold had an exemplary career as an analyst of state fiscal issues. After many years at NCSL, he was director of the Center for the Study of the States at the Rockefeller Institute, State University of New York-Albany, and co-director of the Urban Institute’s New Federalism Project. He was a teacher and writer with a passion for unraveling the complexities of the intergovernmental system and making them understandable to all. An honest broker of issues, he did not engage in partisanship or uninformed advocacy. The Recipients 2011 - Andrew Reschovsky 2010 - Gary Olson 2009 - George R.
