This year marks the 10th time local arts critics have teamed up to honor achievements on the local cultural scene, and the Critics Table will mark the occasion by founding the Austin Arts Hall of Fame. Contributing nominations for the 2001-02 season - which ended April 30 - were Austin American-Statesman staff reporters Michael Barnes and Jeanne Claire van Ryzin (arts), and freelance writers Jamie Smith Cantara (theatre), Sondra Lomax (dance), David Mead (music), and Moira Muldoon (theatre), and Austin Chronicle writers Rob Curran (theatre), Robi Polgar (music and theatre), and yours truly. As the informal affiliation of local arts writers gathered to put together nominations for the 2001-02 Critics Table Awards, they found so much exceptional work they wished to recognize, they opted to expand the size of the categories to include up to 10 nominees. That essentially describes the reaction of the Austin Critics Table to the last year in the arts. We came, we saw, we liked an awful lot of it. 2001-02 Critics Table Award nominee Jason Liebrecht in El Paraiso, recipient of 13 nominations
