Andrew McCarthy, who will make two presentations at the show, won the 2010 Society of American Travel Writers' Lowell Thomas Award for Travel Journalist of the Year.

"I feel more at home in myself the farther away I am from home," McCarthy told CNN in a 2010 interview, speaking about why he loves to travel. "When I'm out of my routine and dependent on the kindness of strangers... I think I'm a better version of myself. I think most people are."
