In March 2006, the Radio/Television Correspondents Association saluted him with the Joan S.

Pergram is the youngest recipient of the award and was the first radio reporter to be honored in 12 years. He also won an Edward R. Murrow Award for Excellence In Reporting in March 2007 for his reporting on outgoing House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX). In 2009, Washingtonian magazine named Pergram as one of the 50 best journalists in Washington. “A star on and off the air, Pergram has the respect of his Capitol Hill peers. Not an easy group to please,” Washingtonian wrote. Pergram has served as an RCTA Executive Committee member for the past three years and is a board member of the U.S. Capitol Historical Society.
