The anti-stigma campaign featuring Glenn Close, her bipolar sister Jessie and schizophrenic nephew Calen recently won a Silver Telly Award. (The three are pictured.)
The award honors the best in cable television commercials and programs, video and film productions, as well as work created for the Web.
The award was given to the watsons, the creative agency behind the bringchange2mind PSA. Director Ron Howard donated his talent to creating the PSA as did John Mayer, who handed over the use of his song "Say" to the project.
