ABOUT THE SCHOLARSHIP
The Larry B. Sawyer Student Scholarship (formerly the Esther R. Sawyer Award) was established in 2000 by the Internal Audit Foundation Board of Trustees and funded through a generous contribution to the Foundation by the Sawyer family. Larry B. Sawyer, CIA, CPA (1911–2002), known as “the father of modern internal auditing,” was an attorney, author, and ardent advocate for the internal audit profession and original author of Sawyer’s Internal Auditing, now in its seventh edition.
