Each year the Ruskin Society of North America, in conjunction with the Ruskin Art Club, presents its Ruskin Lifetime Achievement Award to a figure in the contemporary world of Ruskin studies who has made a significant and sustained contribution to the appreciation of Ruskin's vision in our day. Dinah Birch is a scholar, teacher, and writer on Ruskin and Victorian Literature, based at the University of Liverpool, with a special focus on Ruskin's role in the advancement of women in the 19th and 20th centuries. She delivered our Ruskin Lecture at USC in 2023 on Ruskin and Women.
