Andy Cifranic, an award-winning photographer for The Plain Dealer, died Saturday of complications from throat cancer. He was 71.

Cifranic, a past Ohio Newspaper Photographers Association Photographer of the Year, began his career at the newspaper in 1948 as an office boy in the display advertising department.

From 1951 to 1955, he practiced photography while serving in the Air Force.

After his discharge, he returned to the newspaper and worked as a clerk in the dispatch room until a photographer position opened up. He retired in 1998.

Cifranic is survived by his wife of 48 years, Anne, five sons, a daughter and eight grandchildren.
