ASME cover awards, first place 2007: best celebrity cover:

From Wired: Stephen Colbert, who plays a TV show host who knows about everything, was the perfect fact to grace the cover of Wireds annual How To issue. During the shoot, to illustrate the notion of hackingtinkering with and improvingeveryday life, creative director Scott Dadich suggested Colbert saw an iPod in two with a hack saw. Dadich then promptly supplied his own iPod for the task. (The device still works by the way.). The magazine covera first for Colbertwas shot by celebrity photographer Jill Greenberg. The August 2006 issue was Wireds best-selling issue ever.
