Throughout his career, Kifner has received numerous awards, including the 1998 John Chancellor Award for Excellence in Journalism from the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania. The award was won for the body of his work, for both foreign and domestic reporting. The Annenberg School for Communication, which administers the award, cited his ability to translate \"complicated changes in the political, economic and cultural landscape for American readers.\" The award is given in honor of John Chancellor, the NBC television correspondent and anchor who died in 1996.Kifner graduated from Williams College in 1963 and attended Harvard University on a Nieman Fellowship in 1971 and 1972.
