SESAC is thrilled to announce our three recipients of the 2025 Abe Olman Scholarship – Daphne Browdy, Elby Faser, and Dawoyne “2forwOyNE” Lawson. Abe Olman was both a major figure in the music publishing community and a songwriter himself, in addition to being one of the founders of the Songwriters Hall of Fame. The scholarships given out each year are made possible by his family in the interest of encouraging and supporting the careers of young songwriters. Previous SESAC recipients include Calvin Langman, Ava Liv Mabry, Kiran Gandhi, and more.
