2026 Unsung Heroes

Unsung Heroes

City & State NY is proud to present our annual Unsung Heroes of New York. This list will recognize key players who operate under the radar. While executive directors, CEOs and commissioners are the public faces of organizations, businesses or agencies, we're looking to put a spotlight on the movers and shakers who get things done behind the scenes.
