In 2005, Ms. Dockser Marcus won a Pulitzer Prize in the Beat Reporting category for her extensive and influential Journal leders and stories of state-of-the-art cancer treatments and the affecting odysseys of those who navigate through these treatment options. Ms. Dockser Marcus won first place in the New York State Bar Association's 1990 Media Awards Competition for a group of legal feature stories that covered such subjects as environmental liability for toxic-waste dumping, litigation over privacy rights and new developments in libel law.
