ELMER HOLMES BOBST AWARD FOR EMERGING WRITERS

Established in 1983, the Elmer Holmes Bobst Awards in Arts and Letters are presented each year to individuals who have brought true distinction to the American literary scene. Recipients of the Awards include writers as varied as Toni Morrison, John Updike, Russell Baker, Flora Lewis, Edward Albee, Arthur Miller, and James Merrill. The Awards have now been expanded to include a category devoted to emerging writers of poetry and fiction, and in 1990 the jurors, E. L. Doctorow, Denis Donoghue, Galway Kinnell, and Richard Sennett, selected the first two winners in this category, Bruce Murphy, for his collection of poetry Sing, Sing, Sing and Joe Schall, for his Indentation and Other Stories. These two works are both published by New York University Press.
