Longtime Palisadian and “Santa Baby” composer Philip Springer won the Best Individual Performance in Video in the 28th annual Webby Awards Internet Celebration for his rendition of Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata.”
“Hailed as the ‘internet’s highest honor’ by The New York Times, The Webby Awards, presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, is the leading international awards organization honoring excellence on the internet,” read a statement following his win.
His daughter, Tamar Springer, will attend the awards on Monday, May 13, to deliver a five-word acceptance speech on Philip’s behalf—one day after his 98th birthday on May 12.
