Best of Knoxville: 2008
How do you define a city? In the case of Knoxville, Tenn., the outside world may think of certain iconic structures involving wig shops—but we believe it's the people who make our city what it is. The things they create, whether it's policy or parks or shops or culture, form our civic life here and make it a place worth staying. With our annual Best of Knoxville Readers' Poll, we aim to celebrate those people who make our fair city so distinctively Knoxville-esque. So please join us in expressing gratitude for their efforts at making life here enjoyable. We've written mini-tributes to new winners and to some old favorites. And just to make sure Knoxville doesn't get a big head, we've included a few staff “worsts” to keep things balanced. Read the Best of Knoxville results for 2008.
