The Press Club of Long Island, the local SPJ affiliate, recognized Levy in the editorial opinion category for an op-ed column based on a poll of voter attitudes that was conducted by Hofstra for a conference on issues in the gubernatorial election. Levy also was cited for magazine writing for articles in Long Island Pulse - a controversial essay advocating for a local income tax and a part-memoir, part-feature about baby boomers still playing baseball. Levy, who was a Pulitzer finalistin 1999 and has won many of journalism's top prizes, said: "There's nothing more satisfying than being recognized by the people who know you the best - your colleagues."
