Richard Smith received the Walter Sullivan Award at the 2008 Joint Assembly Honors Ceremony, which was held on 29 May 2008 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Smith was honored for the documentary film “Crude,” which examines oil's ancient origins and the geology of its formation and explores the potential, unwelcome consequences of oil's prodigious use by industrial society as a fuel and raw material.
